hmmm for some reason today, my brand new Apogee is starting to leak at one of the barbs...
seems when i switch off the pump is when it leaks more than when pump is running and pushing water through it ??
Only installed it 3 days ago!

Use some teflon tape(lots of it!) on the threadings, and make sure the o-rings are working properly. A guy I know killed his graphics card because of leakage from one of the barbs... It was an apogee as well, although I've never had that problem with mine.Originally Posted by eva2000

Hey wait, I thought delrin is very strong... I have a drill stop made of it, and thats designed to what, have about 0.05 square inches take the full force of a drill, at speeds in excess of 3000 rpm, and with like 3 quarters of a horses power? We're talking like 200W focused on a tiny place, so 100W=100J/s=100 kg m/s^2, which is 100N/mm^2, which is a TON of FORCE!!! I doubt it will resist that but still, delrin is supposed to be very strong. Oh and, I think there might be a way for impingement blocks to have more surface area, to make each little cup a bit larger, and instead of one hole, do like 6 holes around one hole, and the entire thing can be expanded. Not sure if it will work, just an idea.Originally Posted by gabe
