DevBiker Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 You can hook it up to SATA power and jump it ... just like you'd do for a custom loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Plug it on sata power and jump the psu right ? No need to plug the Pump connector to mobo right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 If you still have a cpu cooling device in place, you can simply connect the Platinum to a spare SATA header and put it on the table. No fans necessary. However, I am not sure what that will tell you. If it is going to leak, it will be doing right now in the plastic bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I dont have to test it to know if my product is leaking or not? If its leaking then its leaking from first i open the box right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 There probably is some measure of pressure increase with the pump on, but since there aren’t open connectors like with custom cooling, there really are not a lot of danger points — slash open a hose (very unlikely) or pull the tubes out of the block. However, it only takes a few minutes to hook up the SATA line and power it on if that puts your mind at ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much, yeah. It does happen occasionally and it's super-obvious. There will be water damage on the cardboard if it's isn't still wet. But if you wanna be paranoid and run a test, you can jump the PSU and run with it just on SATA. Remember: Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that they aren't out to get you. They are. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
