No, I wouldn't, but leaving my wife is a little bit different than choosing not to buy from a certain manufacturer in a niche market. First it was PT Nuke cracking acrylic reservoirs (no other acrylic had problems with this) and now it's silver ruining nickel plating (no other nickel plated blocks have a problem with this). I see a pattern here and I don't particularly like it.

What were trying to do is tell eK, ummm ok, your half correct, now take what you found out.. and look at it HERE and not THERE.

Then hopping eK will go OH I SEE.
Instead of going... FROM WHAT WE ONLY SEE.
I'm hoping EK will see that saying "our process is fine, it's your fault but we'll RMA anyway" is not making them any friends. Saying "we were cutting corners with our plating, and we apologize. We are using a different company for this now and everything looks great" would save a lot of customers, and restore some faith.

3 months is a long time, and if you have a LOT of waterblocks and pumps, as I'm sure EK does, setting up 10 loops with common fluids and letting them run for that long and posting results would be great also. We would then have proof that distilled + silver ruins their special nickel plating, instead of "the problems were in this setup, so it must be that" response given. The same should have been done before attacking PT Nuke specifically.

Again, this is starting a trend that I don't really want to see from companies I make purchases from.
