6:08- Keep screwing them, in one by one. Don't don't add too much pressure on a single one at a time, try tightening one by one a little bit, and then just keep going back at them, keep tightening them again.
10:18- Be on the look out for any leaking, I'm very confident in myself for not having any leaks in my system. So I did not add any paper towels or anything.
12:35- Make sure you do a proper leak test, where so you can spot any plausible leaks. Even if you have, even you have experience on watercooling, and you know what you're doing...
i know diddly squad about W/C-ing but even i felt my mouth fall open when he put the fans in, and then a bit further when he turn it on without fully filling/bleeding the system. I mean, you wouldnt switch on your PC without the heatsink attached. truly frigtening.
Some peoples' purpose on this planet is just to be a warning to others
time for some video editing
TTL and Linus from LinusTechTips helped me get the idea down (waiting until Christmas to do it myself). I'm glad that I didn't see his vid first. I may have thought that his way was safe and sane. I just want mayhem to correct him with a video response. Nothing insulting, just a friendly reminder that how he did it was unsafe and how he can improve his WC skills.
Yeah, as much as we're all enjoying having a go at this guy (it is fun isn't it?) it's funny cos we know he's an idiot and his advice sucks. I feel sorry for anyone who has suffered damaged kit after following this guys "guide"...it's really not that funny if £1,000 worth of hardware is sitting melted in the bottom of your £200 case! Ok, I exagerate, but not as much as you might think...![]()
I thought Natashaful gave him some friendly advice some months back which he didn't take too kindly to? So I say insulting video all the way!Ok, I'm kidding, but still - the guy had fair warning he wasn't really doing a good job but thought he knew best.![]()
Let's consider outselves lucky we didn't stumble across information like this during our first ventures into water cooling.
Cheers,
Scoob.
I think we should put together a list of WC do's and don'ts for mayhem. Spartan117FS has the "don'ts" part done for us. So let's tackle the do's. I'll start.
1) jump you PSU, use a spare PSU if you have one to start the pump.
2) paper towel everything below the tubing.
3) check your connections before turning on the pump.
That's all I got for now.

PMSL think before you type... my 9 year old & 10 year old girl's will know more about water cooling, sub zero cooling, how to make liquids, what will cause problems and how to build and pc including software related problems than you. never mind what i know.
