so, they have these warrenty stickers. and yet they sell nozzle kits.

they must be magic if they can replace the nozzles without removing those stickers :p.

do you just void it and move on, no way around it or what? kinda silly to waste your time.

the warranty sticker is like a sign that they leak tested it with 85psi. So they are saying that they can't do anything if it leaks after you open it up. So if you have nozzles, go ahead and replace them, thats what they are there for.

Or you can cram your new nozzle down the center barb with a needle-punch and a ball peen hammer.:D

To the best of my understanding the warranty is honoured unless the product is abused.

The sticker just signifies that they tested it, and it didn't leak when it left the factory. If you disassemble and reassemble the waterblock they can't guarantee that you tightened it properly, so any leakage that occurs after that is strictly the responsibility of the user. If the waterblock is defective and you disassembled/re-assembled it, then DD will replace it under their warranty.

If you want to cram it down the inlet with a ball pein hammer, that's your own business :eek: . I just wouldn't expect a replacement ;)

Ball peens help me fix things all the time. Hard drives that stop working, CD-Roms, and even CPU's! :D

sometimes a ball peen is'nt up to the job and you need a sledge hammer to get the job done right lol
