all in one water cooling

[alexzdro7]

i am interested in buying the corsair h100i v2 all in one liquid cooling. but i am nervous that it will leak anyway i can test it for leaks in my system before actually running it for extensive periods of time. i am just nervous because i dont have enough money to recover from a leak

Its very unlikely to leak if you install it correctly (Not having the radiator hanging or somthing).

correct me someone if I am wrong (one of my friends said he chose corsair AIO's for this reason) but apparently corsairs warranty on AIO's covers any damaged component due to (non-misuse) leaks in addition to the AIO itself. and them leaking out of the box is just sooooooo uncommon I don't think you have to worry m8.

Don't worry ... even if it leaks and break something Coasir warrenty will cover it if you provide enough information and send the broken part caused by the leak. If you worry that much go with high end air cooler such as dark rock 3/NH-D15/R1 Ulimate.

 

GO FOR IT.

There was a guy with a leaking H100i and corsair sent him replacement parts for the rest of his PC.

This is probably just an isolated case though, they probably need a lot of proof that the leak caused everything to die.

I always record when I build for that reason. <3

That was exactly the cooler I had and I can tell you personally that its good quality and you shouldn't worry. I also had the H100i V1 in my other rig and now its about 5 years old, still works no issues.

that's actually super impressive.

Is that OFFICIAL Corsair policy and they genuinely cover the FULL COST of any component damage? I had read it was only 50%, if that. I'd like to hear from someone directly that they did actually cover the whole cost, rather than someone saying it was a friend of a friend or they read it online somewhere. Great if they do, but I am sceptical...

 

I could imagine after some lengthy legal battle they would have to pay out, but for them to have this writ in their terms & conditions... mmmm, I don't know...
