well had a bit of a blow out tonight i was moving around some electrical stuff on my rig and it looks like one of the pumps got unplugged...every so slightly but enough i guess!
so the CPU went to 100C and i didnt notice...luckily i had my wife on the phone so the music wsnt on and i heard a LOUD SHSHHHH! and i look at the mobo and sure enough water everywhere. tore it all apart and one of my connections on the cpu block is leaking now.
the tubing was HOT as hell when i touched it...so i need some idea here guys, i took the CPU out and the socket is loaded with water..!
dried it out with a hair dryer...is this the best method? and what would you suggest i do before powering back on? how long should i wait to power back on? what do i do here?
and i wonder why the damn connection is leaking now, looks to be coming from the tube where the clamp is...think it warped the plastic or something?
