H50 leaked and filled my pci-e slots:eek: 378MB of pics

 

I'm on my laptop right now but am going to start uploading pictures here in a minute from another computer.:mad:

You won't be able to upload that many pics here. Best to just email customerservice@corsair.com with the most relevant ones, e.g. the leak spot, pics of the tube angles, etc.

done. Thanks

 

I wasn't planning on upping all those

It leaked from the base of the pump?

yes, the plastic shroud was somewhat containing it.

and when it started coming out it went straight down the board filling each pci-e slot then to the floor.

Holy crap :/

 

2nd H50 I see leaking.

 

Hope you get your parts replaced soon, Corsair has a great RMA service, good luck, and i feel sorry for you :/

Thanks i hope this is hassle free. All i ever use is corsair dominators

Right now im worried about my 930,classified,and evga 8800GT G92 that is not made anymore

Don't worry, the last member I saw that leaked he got his i7 920 and all his stuff replaced very quickly.

 

About the 8800GT, it might be even good for you coz then they'll need to give you a better one :p

Thanks for the support

 

 

Besides being knocked down to a P4 2.2 laptop

I've calm down a little

 

The strange thing here is i run caseless and the position of the mounting was the natural position the hoses wanted to be in. Meaning there was no bending,twisting of any sort.

 

It started to make alot of noise like when air is passing through the system.

Later i was looking at the pump/block and noticed a clear line around the base/shroud i never noticed before and thought it was a glue or epoxy of some sort until i decided to try and stick my finger nail in there and well the rest is history. There was actually water built up in the shroud/cover and the noise i heard was it leaking/spraying inside the cover???. I then disassembled the whole system to find that all my pci-e slot were saturated. I then noticed the trail of destuction from the H50 mounting bracket to the NB heatsink to dripping off the bottom of the motherboard.

 

The H50 is near empty now

Darn that sucks, i sure hope my H50 doesn't do that! my PSU is directly beneath the Motherboard.. if the pump goes my entire PC and maybe everything plugged into the board might go.. (and that would be expensive)

 

Hope you can get a replacement for any damaged parts :)

Hopefully corsair will help you out on it. Sorry to see that happen to you. Wish you the best of luck.

just out of curiousity, how long did you have ownership of the H50 before this happend.

3/14/10~5/8/10

While this issue concerns me a bit, and if anything the 2nd one reported on this board.. it's always the the products that have failed that you hear of, no one ever post "My H50 is still going good!" what I mean , given murphy's law, it will happen, but given corsairs customer service, I'm not too worried. in all likeliness if mine were to leak (unless is sprayed all over) all I would probably lose is my mobo and video card, I figure the "zone seperation" in my 800D would keep my PSU safe.

Are you suggesting Corsair will replace all of the equipment that was damaged by the leaking pump or hoping he can RMA them to the respected mfgs??

I'm saying he'll get all his components replaced.

 

The last person who got a leaking H50 and broke his i7 and everything, he got it replaced very quick for free.

 

I am sure the OP of this thread will get a full replacement soon.

That's fantastic! I am still waiting on my RMA approval for some DDR2 ram, hopefully that will be soon.

Send the pics to ramguy@corsairmemory.com as well and please include your contact information along with a link to this thread. If you have not done it already, please Request an RMA.

 

Done. 5/11/10

any word on this? I purchased one of these for my build that'll be up soon. i'm sure it's a small ratio of people that have a leak, but scary nontheless.

 

what happens if it's 3 years from now? 4 years?

2 year warrenty i think

Jezz!!!...

 

I hope this won't happen to my rig...or I have to really punch someone.

I thought about my response after i typed it up and decided i will give it until friday.

But it is NOT looking good

...I will update by friday with a final response and the amount of money this has cost me...So far am very upset

After that it will be updated on OCN.

Thank you guys for the support.

Hi , any update on this , just wondering if it was the pump that leaked and if so did Corsair compensate for your damaged hardware ? .
