so heres my dilemma, currently have a kick ass system that's in need of a cooling upgrade. Right now my 8700k is running 4.8 ghz with a Cryorig r1 but to save my life this tower cooler cant keep up with the temperatures if i push the vcore up to 1.35 and the cpu clock at 5ghz. I just finished a stable stress test with OCCT and aida64 w/ avx and the temps im getting are atrocious. Im talking like 90-100 degrees fluctuating. I'm seriously debating on putting this rig under water but im also hesitant that one day im gonna walk in the house and find my PC soaked in coolant goodness.
Have any of you guys ever experienced leaks with a custom loop? If so what are the chances of loops spontaneously leaking? Im also thinking of putting some thread sealant on the compression fittings just for insurance. If you one of you guys have experienced a disastrous leak did your components die or is it still working?
I already have my cart ready and all i need is to do is press that order confirm button but I just have these nagging question in my head lol.
Hopefully some of you guys can put my head to rest haha
