The breacking issues concerning poly tops on water blocks is coused by:
#1: Tension by the retention mechanism? (nuts&bolts&springs)
#2: Tension on the (brass/stainless threaded) barbs produced by turning the hoses?
(I'm allready considering thermal issues (expantion||contraction) by "on-off" cycles)
#1 sounds clear to me, now I've read in this forum 'bout cracks allways starting to grow from the barbs holes (#2).
thx 4 yer time.
