Help graphics card cooling

Go to solution Solved by stealth80,

Whilst I appreciate you're prob pissed I came up with a little shopping list to water cool your CPU and GPU and hence avoid your issue. I just used the EKWB shop, I suspect you can get similar products in the US for less, this whole thing includes everything down to the coolant and comes in at $425 (although for some reason its only added 2 fans, you would need 3)

Well you could try sending it back to the retailer you got it from, or try finding a new cooler on ebay or something. Otherwise maybe someone wants to buy it off you and you could purchase a new one :/

Is it your fault that the fan is broken?  I can totally understand them not wanting to fix it if you broke it.

I just used the EKWB shop, I suspect you can get similar products in the US for less, this whole thing includes everything down to the coolant and comes in at $425 (although for some reason its only added 2 fans, you would need 3)

At least they could try something they could try to water cool it or something instead of telling me no go away and buy a new one.

I'm going to try. I think that water cooling is the best solution for the graphics card. Thank you and god bless all you guys for helping out.
