I have read a lot of posts here and have come to realize that many of the cpu casualties have been from installing the water block, wither crushing the core, or not tightening enough and the cpu frieing, so I wanted to know how to tell if your water block is tight enough or if it is too tight? BC I cannot frie a cpu, my dad will kill me, I told him that water cooling is 99% Safe:rolleyes:
 
getting springs and using all four of the holes is easy.

btw, I've fried 2 CPU's with aircooling. I've fried 0 with WCing and using springs like I am.
 
Icannot get a swiftech, bc i already have a maze 3, so how do you know if the clamps are too tight or not tight enough....
