  • When water cooling goes wrong!

    We (well for the record not me, it was Shawn - I was just watching in antispation) just tried installing a new Swiftech water cooling kit at the new TweakTown HQ in Melbourne and, well... one of the pipes were not properly installed and well when that happens, you get something like this... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :o

      Looks like someone forgot the first rule of water coolin' and that's to test the thing for 1-2 days before installin' any hardware. :D

      I hope that nothin' got damaged? :?:

          Well yes, while me and shawn headed down to the service station to get some distilled water, we left Tweak unattended in the house. We are a bit concerned at the moment because we told him not to touch anything before we left. As far as componants working, we are having a few troubles with a few componants, well, maybe all of them. Not sure yet.

          Will keep you updated.

          BTW, thats me in the background of the second photo.

                    That is exactly why I sat back and watched them perform the task.
