Do be alert, the inlet piping at the reservoir is vunerable to break and came off together with the hose.
Mine broke off and had sent to CDL for investigation.
Hopefully is just one of those manufacturing defects..

Just be alert !

Used for about 5 mths liao....I was surprised that fateful day, the hose tilted to one side. And its just came off like that with the hose, with the broken piping inside the hose.
Luckily, calling of the night, and saw it after shutting down the pc.

sounds dangerous =/
guess those with w/c should take note of this, not just gigabyte w/c kit users.
best to check equipment every now and then.

Then, the water got leak or not????

Siao liao la if got leakage of water then short circuit the mobo

Fix according to the diagram. Upon further checking of the outlet piping of the CPU water block. There was a slight internal crack and with comparing with the inlet of the cpu block.
When accyric crack, its show a shinning line and that is after comparing with the other inlet piping of the cpu block.
Bo pian,going down to CDL again. Derrick is very nice and helpful. But then got to wait for the parts.

When i shut down the comp, luckily, i saw the piping tilted to one side.( it was fine a while ago)
Then, i was shocked to see it came off completely with the piping inside the hose.
Nothing serious, just slightly wet.

Sian... sian...huh. Heard there are already 2 cases.
