Installing The Air Shroud

Confirm that the air shroud matches your chassis model.

tem fans. If necessary, remove some perforated tabs to ensure a snug fit.

Perforated Tabs

The air shroud helps cool the chassis by directing heated air through the rear of
the chassis. When installing the air fan, be aware of the following:

The air shroud is designed to fit within the chassis. The sides of the air

shroud should remain straight in relation to the top. Do not fold or bend the
air shroud.

The air shroud has perforated tabs that can be removed if motherboard com-

ponents prevent proper air shroud installation. Do not remove a tab unless it
is necessary.
