my computer seems screwed up after putting in watercooling system

Gotta watch it. If you know you killed the card it would not be exactly ethical to RMA the card. Well, at least without notifying them of what happened.

I would also look ON the video card, to see if anything is shorting out stuff on it.

yea I think a thorough cleaning would suffice...turns out the problem may have been caused by an excess of thermal compound on the GPU that squirted out a bit to the sides and it's probably shorting out the rest of the circuit within the little block...i'll try cleaning that with some rubbing alcohol later today and see if that was the problem..if not..it's RMA time! w00t lol
