Well, i recently installed my watercooling system, and i'm getting mad corruption on everything...boot screen, windows, everything...

i tried loosening/tightening the screws and that didn't seem to help...am i not getting enough flow? should i get a new pump?

not sure if this belongs here, but if not, tell me and i'll go over to the overclocking and cooling forum...

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thank you!
 
Odd, did you harm the core when you installed the heatsink? That sucks, sounds like you fried the card, but I'd try a better pump before I gave up!

yeah, the pump just died...which could be the problem :p

but could i seriously have killed the card?
 
Any time you take a hsf/waterblock off a gpu/cpu you can kill it when you put another/it back on. Just the way they are.

~Adam
 
well, i don't think i killed it, i think it just got to hot...i reseated it, but for now i can't really test it cuz the pump is dead...

if anyone knows a pump to get instead, please post


and, like i said, i don't think its dead...just got too hot...luckily i noticed and shut it off :p
 
I hear dangerden makes good water blocks, I wonder if they make pumps?

~Adam
 
they have a 12v pump, but its also $75, which i'd rather put towards a new case...but if you have any other suggestions, that would be great! thanks!
