Hello.
Well I need your ideas my friends.
I've finished my build. Ran the system, and wohoo it worked at everything was a-ok!
Then I noticed that there was that electrical buzz sound comming from my PC, well I though it might have been some wire going bad on a fan or smthg, and I was planning to re-do the fans and arrange the wiring soon.
However in two days after the build was in its final "test,play, OC" stage I saw that my reservoir was about 8/10 full, although I filled it up completely and let it run for 7h bfr that.
Soo I filled the thing up again, and later noticed that buzz sound again, and basically there is a leak somewhere in the system, because there seems to be air comming from god knows where and water level in reservoir dropping slowly, but dropping non-the-less.
I've checked the CPU block, and all three gpu blocks, checked all of the connections and fittings, no leaks there ( checked them about 15 times in 5h span, making sure that it werent them, but then again, if it where, my wouldnt be able to play BF3 last night like crazy), so it must come from one of the rads. I pinpointed that buzz sound ( its there only when the whole system is working with all fans), and its comming from the right top corner of the system ( soo I would assume somewhere there my rad is slowly leaking water on to one of the fans, which creates the buzz).
At any rate, I just drained the system out ( ekoolant clear...I will miss you).
Now I need some great way to check all three rads ( RX120, RX360, Koolance140) for micro-leaks, so that I can RMA it with frozencpu or XSPC or Koolance ( whomever will take it and/or will be the source of my leaks.)
Ehhh and here I thought I will assemble the loop and forget it, and the temps where great too: 56c on CPU max, and 40 on GPUs max ( 3x7970 @ 1179/1630)
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!!!! Thanks in advance!
