I came home this afternoon to find my PC turned off. The reservoir looked a little strange, kind of lower than usual, but I saw nothing at a glance inside the case to convince me of a leak, so I turned the PC on. Received a long beep, nothing, opened up the case to see if there was an error code I could use and WTF OMG WATER COMING OUT OF A HOSE THAT SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO THE STUPID NORTH BRIDGE BLOCK!
So there was a lot of coolant (12 month old coolant) leaked from the north bridge directly on top of my video cards. Am I fucked? Should I start stripping out parts to re-build or is there any hope that I can clean this all up? It's coolant.. and that shouldn't short out hardware, right? But after 12 months, there's bound to be enough bio in the loop to mess shit up with such a bad leak..
