Corsair H50 radiator problem...

[thanakornl]

i just received my corsair h50 and there's a small bend on one of the grill on the radiator. I was wondering should i go with the hassle and exchange it? or just use it as is...

Thank you so much...

Try testing it outside of your case first, return it if it leaks.

You mean the rad fins or a fan grill ?

It is very common to find small "bo-bos" in rad fins. Its paper thin (or thinner) alum or copper and the least touch will bend it. You can take something like a toothpick and fix most of it but its of no concern at all unless very deep and very large. (bigger than a fingerprint). It happens so often there is a "comb" that can be bought by heating and AC repairmen to "comb" out the fins.

If it is a fan grill, and its going to cause a problem, call corsair.
