1. I did not build this.
2. I am a total newb when it comes to water-cooling, but no when it comes to building computers.
So I have a computer that is almost identical to the x 603 seen here. https://www.ekfluidgaming.com/powerspec-fluid-gaming/
I say almost because that build comes with all aluminum parts... but the waterblock on my gaming card is way to heavy and shiny to be aluminum. I have had the unit and run it infrequently for about a year. One of the fan's bearings were shot and I could not change the fans without removing the dang radiator. When I did I noticed gunk in the waterblock and what looks like damage to the assumed nickel plate on the video card block. The CPU block looks fine. I cant see inside the radiator. I know I have to replace something. Can I:
just replace the waterblock on the video card?
replace everything BUT the waterblock on the video card?
Or am I stuck building a while new loop?
If its option number 3, will I need a new pump??
Thanks in advance
