So i saw a while back on the troubleshooting forum someone had some liquid coming from their H100i. 
Was that ever determined to be fan oil, damaging, or something i should RMA for?

Because i am having the same issue. 
I luckily caught it in time, while doing my weekly dusting and inspection, so it hasn't dripped on anything. 
I am currently uploading a video showing it. 
It feels like it could be lube for the fans, and it is only on the one fan, that i have replaced through RMA already (another already on the way, for a different reason.) but i want to make sure.
Video link ETA 5 mins. 


Thanks.

The h100i leaks? Wow. I knew it had problems with the stock fans, but one year going and it works totally fine

Well, let me give you advise. For stuff that is sensitive, like all in one liquid coolers, try and buy me from a store near you. If you did, it's a 1 in a 1000 you got a damaged product.

Corsair support is the best I have seen. Take the RMa and closely observer the h100i.

So far it has been nothing but trouble, aside from the cooling performance. 

The fans click and squeak, i have already replaced two and have another on the way right now.

The RGB LED is pink when set to red, and corsair link is the most useless thing in the world.

One thing i will give corsair credit for is their amazing RMA process. 

All three times i have had to use it, i have had a new fan shipped within hours. 

I think if it is actually the loop leaking, and not lube from a fan, i will just return it and get a different cooler.

Idk about others but the rgb can be a hassle to fix. First close and open corsair link. Then set all the values of the led to 0. Now set the red to 255 and back to 0. Blue to 255 and back to 0. Green to 255 and back to 0. Now set blue to 1 and green to 1. Finally set red to 255.

Hope this helps!
