Guys - Its really my fault
The plastic barbs on the apogee wasn't tight enough
I thought I bared down and was going to strip them
but I didn't have the bottom flat part pushing the o ring all way in and man - i thought it was dead
the water had dripped down onto northbridge block lines
then was dripping onto top 7800
would power on and cut right off in 1 second
I took it all out and wiped it all down
I had an extra pad for the gpu block which was soaking wet
and even took a knife and pushed tissue into pcie slot to see if it was wet and nothing showed up on tissue
still would just cut on and then right off after i done put it all back
i been at this 4 hours i guess
after tearing out all the water cooling about 3 times
i took a blow dryer and blowed into pcie slot about 5 minutes and she booted up
have you guys sprung any leaks like this?
and does it normally fry **** and am i just lucky or what?
i just now got it back running
