Theres always a chance they can leak, either if the tubing was to tear/crack or the fittings for the block/rad somehow came loose.

The damage caused would depend on where the leak happens and what components are around/underneath it.

Yeah, there is always a chance of something leaking, but it in the end it all depends on how careful you are.

Let me get this straight. You want a x62 becuse there's a chance that it will kill your computer and you will get your parts replaced. What?
