    Hoping this is the right place to post this, there wasn't really anywhere I could find that was suitable.

    Anyway basically I bought a waterblock for my 1080 from overclockers (this aint a company bash btw) and when I drained the CPU loop in my old rig (see iced blood) I noticed this on the GPU block:

    So I drained the GPU loop and reseated the GPU block Perspex and figured out it was the coolant leaking internally:

    After a couple of emails to both overclockers and EK they said the performance would be fine and it was purely cosmetic. I was intending to move my build into the Thermaltake View 21 at the time but figured this wouldn't matter as I cancelled that plan due to the fact there is no snow edition or plan to release one.

    Ok so move on a week and I break the PC down to move into an INWIN 303 and I find this:

    LUCKY OR WHAT ?! It didn't hit my board or GPU, it didn't leak out, I did have a couple of freezes on the PC in the days leading to me finding this but it was like 2 in 3 days so I thought nothing of it (hopefully my GPU aint knackered, freezes weren't during gaming so I think I'm ok) maybe a slight drip :worried:

    Anyway quick email to overclockers and they RMA'd it pretty much instantly. Its been sent to EKWB now for repair/replace, has anyone experienced this and have any idea of the turn around time?

    Cheers
