January 11, 201214 yr Q1: why did it leak?Q2: why do/did you have a radi in the computer?I think, if done properly, watercooling is never going to leak.1. I do not know why one of the copper pipes within the radiator started to leak. Possibly due to corrosion, defect in material or bad workmanship. Or faulty maintenance :D2. My triple radi is mounted in the upper side of the case, that's a pretty common design.I thought, if done properly, watercooling is never going to leak. ;)

I read forums about watercooling, and leaks are so rare. You are probably more likely to die in the car accident than have a watercooling loop leak! :LMAO: But on the serious side: if you had a corrosion, then you didn't do something right.Yeah, common and dangerous design. When I was deciding to build my WC, I said to the guy, sure all inside I want to be sure, good connectors and all, but I want my radi out and out of the way of my hardware. So that's how we did it.

I'm not sure what I could have done to prevent this, I have been using an additive compound and the leak occured at a point that you can't possibly touch. Bad luck I guess.
