Alright, set up all the water cooling stuff outside the case for some leak test. And HOLY SHIT! There's a hole in my reservoir!

My CPU waterblock is also leaking at the fittings area, any tips?

Hole in the res?! Actual hole, or leak? shocking.gif

Try tightening the fittings on the waterblock and make sure the o-ring is properly placed.

homaigad. why so weird one. oO. tiny hole? can you see it if you take the end cap off?

if your CPU block still leaks after you tighten down, rinse the acrylic threads and inspect for cracks.

Fixed the CPU leaking problem. Dumb me forgot to insert them O rings. LOL.

I couldn't see it when I took it off that day. This is shit. Oh one more thing if I use the inlet port on the CPU waterblock as an outlet can ah?

LOL. one problem solved. rclxms.gif

gotta put it to the light to actually be able to see these tiny holes.

I wouldn't recommend the port switching. Might affect temperatures because of the plate placement. You could try though. laugh.gif

Already complained to PrimoChill. Hopefully they'll send me a replacement cap along with my mounting bracket. *hints at free shipping.  thumbup.gif

I didn't switch the ports on purpose. I didn't realize when I installed to leak test and flush the loop. Will change it when I install it permanently.

I hope so too!

haha. Some blocks are cool with it. Some don't respond too well.

Use silicone in the mean time if you have it. Just put a small blob on the inside of the cap. If you get black silicone, you won't be able to see it.

A simpler solution would be to swap your end caps. Have the two port at the base and the four port at the top. I don't foresee any issue of it turning into a fountain. tongue.gif

looking good! liking the screws. they have an industrial-ish look.

are you running the fans on max? if you are, what's the sound comparable to?

Running at max at the moment. Waiting for a PWM fan splitter to arrive. It's pretty loud. No idea what to compare it to.  hmm.gif

Pwm splitter.. Eh, the corsair 4-pin?? blink.gif

I don't think that'll help your fans. The fans itself don't have pwm features. You'll need to control the fan with voltage regulation/modulation.
