So I got one of those 120mm Panaflo fans and it's a bit thicker than a standard 120mm fan. I could have used a small screw since the fan holes were open on either side but .. I decided to use a long screw. So guess what my dumb ass did? Yup. Busted a water line in the radiator. Keep in mind I just got this Swiftech Apex GT kit like 4 days ago. Anyway, so I managed to get the radiator off and drain the coolant. Newegg was out of the double 120mm Swiftech radiators so I got the 3 x 120mm even though I'm only cooling the Q6700 right now. Man, I'm so pissed at myself. The moment I started screwing in the fan, I had a bad feeling. And I'm guessing Swiftech doesn't cover that under their warranty huh?
Anyway, until tomorrow I'm computer-less since my other computer is waiting for a vid card and doesn't have a pci-e 6pin (obviously not a gaming machine). Sooo, I'm writing this on my PS3 lol. Anyway, moronic move on my part...just thought I'd share my pain - grrr.
