    Life After water?

    ok so my watercoolign arrived, the thermaltake aqaurius 2 one that i had the threead about recently, my nfs ver 2 mob also arrived, so i set the watercooling up, im currently runnign thsi sweet nfs board btw, so i ahve the watercoolign set up and the water is zipping round and there is onyl a few wee bubbles in the pipes leading form the pump, cpu and radiator, but a fiar few around thios backup tanks which doesnt seem to be in the loop of coolin so im not worried bout that
    the cpu block however feels as cold as it was beofre i turned it on lol, althio can feel water going thru it, cos of liek slight vibrations and stuff, it feels cold, is it safe to put this in my system? like is ther anything i ahve done worng cos i dont wana burn out my 1700 cos of a stupid eager mistake

    is this safe guys, and how long wood it take to burn out a cpu iif this thing was bum? e.g. how long have i?

    You should bee more worried about it leaking :E

    If its mounted properly, the pum and fan are on, then you shouldnt have problems.. just watch your temps in mbm or bios.
