Supported image formats include GIF and JPG with a resolution of 160 x 128 pixels and a maximum size of 1 MB.
• Iluminação RGB Aura Sync: Synchronize the cooler's RGB lighting effects with other Aura Sync-enabled components in your system for a unified aesthetic.

5. Manutenção

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your liquid CPU cooler.

• Remoção de poeira: Limpe periodicamente as aletas do radiador e as pás da ventoinha para evitar o acúmulo de poeira, que pode impedir o fluxo de ar e reduzir a eficiência da refrigeração. Use ar comprimido ou uma escova macia.
• Inspeção do ventilador: Check fans for any signs of wear, unusual noise, or obstructions. Ensure they are securely mounted.
• Tubulação e conexões: Inspect the tubing for any kinks, leaks, or damage. Ensure all connections are secure.
• Pasta térmica: While thermal paste is pre-applied, consider reapplying it if you remove the pump head for any reason, or if you notice a significant increase in CPU temperatures over time.

6. Solução De Problemas

If you encounter issues with your ASUS ROG RYUO 240, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Power/No RGB/OLED Display Off:
  • Ensure all power cables (pump, fans) are securely connected to the motherboard headers.
  • Verify the internal USB 2.0 cable is correctly connected to both the pump unit and the motherboard.
  • Check LiveDash and Aura Sync software settings to ensure RGB and OLED are enabled and configured correctly.
• Altas temperaturas da CPU:
  • Confirme se a bomba está funcionando (você poderá sentir uma leve vibração ou ouvir um zumbido fraco).
  • Certifique-se de que as ventoinhas estejam girando e corretamente orientadas para o fluxo de ar.
  • Verify the pump head is securely mounted to the CPU and making good contact.
  • Verifique se há acúmulo de poeira nas aletas do radiador e limpe-as, se necessário.
  • Ensure LiveDash fan control settings are not set too low.
• Ruído incomum vindo do refrigerador:
  • Identifique se o ruído vem das ventoinhas ou da bomba.
  • If from fans, check for obstructions or loose mounting. Consider adjusting fan curves in LiveDash.
  • If from the pump, ensure the pump is running at an appropriate speed. Some pump noise is normal, but excessive gurgling might indicate air in the loop (which usually resolves itself over time).
• LiveDash Software Issues (e.g., OLED logo not changing):
  • Ensure you have downloaded and installed the latest version of LiveDash and Aura Sync software from the official ASUS support website.
  • Restart the LiveDash application or your computer.
  • Verify that custom images/animations meet the specified resolution (160x128 pixels) and size (1MB) requirements.
  • Some games or anti-cheat software may conflict with LiveDash. Try exiting LiveDash before launching such applications if you experience issues.
