Hope - and prayer for that matter - is not to be part of a water cooling project.

Just don't rush things and be very meticulous when putting things together. Run a long leaktest before powering up the rig.

First WC build was made more than a year ago, never saw a leak under construction and still holds tight in it's new home.
This build has been running a 20 hour leaktest, was tight straight from the beginning and still is.

If you check the million google links for leaking water, you'll be surprised how sloppy people are...

But it's hard to find waterleaks with disastrous results - air cooling has killed more pc's than water ever will.



Wishing you a nice weekend!



Going back to the rebuild... will post pics later...

And btw. distilled water isn't conductive either.

That is good to hear, and I agree on the dirt in the fans and fins killing chips, seen it first hand myself.
