this week i upgraded my PC some and in the process i decided to run air cooling for the time being while i tryed to figure out what was contaminateing my water system... well i found it
we know better than to mix alu and copper, but anodizeing should have rendered this a null point, regardless considering there was alu oxide caked onto my cpu block, (loop went pump>rad>cpu>nb>gpu>filler>pump ) means my rad has got to be filled with crap... and i had to SCRAPE it off (i used a plastic fork so i didnt mar the inside of the tdx) and seeing as how i cant just rip open the rad to scarpe at it what should i do???
there was nothing in the system but distilled water ( i had some dylite in the system at one point but it was befor i had this block and has been flush about 4 times sence then)
here the catch i had to void the warrenty to find this damage, do you guys think i have a leg to stand on here? im not so worried about the gpu block as i am the rad but regardless the gpu will have to be replace, the question is should the rad be replaced as well?
regardless im going to fire off a e-mail to the guys at DD and see what they can do about my gpu block. the copper base is just fine it all came off the top part.
