Has anyone had any leaking problems with their water cooling systems?
Cromewell said:99% of the time you don't have leaks becuase you make damn sure you've got everything setup properly and you test it outside of your system before hand.
true, but its standard practice, you dont get in a car and drive off if you dont know how to do it properly do you...? anway, no mine didnt leak, but the pump broke down once... no leaking thoughbigsaucybob said:JW, where did u get that statistic? Not everbody in the world is as intelligent about installing water cooling as some of the people around CF.

No we aren't talking about $1000 cooling setups, but you still don't install a WC fill it and turn it one without testing it first. That's like building an airplane without building a scale test model first.Good point, but lets remember we arent spending thousands of dollars on our watercooling. I just think that some people take it for granted or think it is easier than it looks, and mess things up.

You don't need to know what you're doing, you just know that you don't want to ruin your equipnment so you take extra care.
I agree it is very easy but that is what the test is for. Like I said, you don't need any knowledge (well ok you need to know how to connect hoses and such) any mistakes will come out when you do your outside test and you learn a lot doing it,I just think that it is easy to make mistakes
