Jesus, right in the middle of FINALLY assembling my 2500K system to start crunching and a fucking screw frigging broke off on the CPU waterblock mounting plate!!!
I have a sneaking suspicion that the damn thing was fucked up from the get go!
Got a Swiftech GTZ awhile back and noticed that two of the mounting screws had, in the past, been installed with a screw driver rather than the outer thumb screw usage. A couple of them went in kind of tough but were going in okay. Was adjusting from side to side when one of them just let go! Was using my fingers to tighten them. That is what makes me believe there was a crack in that screw to start with.
None the frigging less, this fucking build is, once again, put on the damn back burner until I can pick up the back plate and screws! Naturally the mounting screw broke off flush with the back plate.
God Damn It, I am about to sell this shit off guys!!!! Every damn time I go to put this system together, some other fucking crap happens!
On a good note, I did get the pump and res mounted and plumbed.
