Poor quality: cracked...

old serie : short 3pin cable 1st batch.

2nd batch Good quality, mounted dis mounted re mounted, longer 3pin cable, modded, tubing changed, coolant Mayhems + rad Alphacool : not cracked

79chf without fan bought as a Core version, the only other AIO at that price was a Corsair H60 2013 (120mm single fan)

the issue was corrected, at last it seems they listened to the complaining (about the quality of the tank and the 3pin cable length ) tho it seems they were hellish on RMA and previous issues.

Well, I bought mine at the end of August 2015, yet still received a poor quality product that almost damaged my GPU. It worked for less than 03 weeks, then cracked by itself.
Even if there is a new improved version, I have no confidence in the product.
I've had problem once and nothing assures me that will not happen again.

It is like buying a new car and have an accident because the brakes did not work when you needed.
You can not get hurt but will never trust that car maker again.

try to vary your post copy past nuuuuhhh... (ok i also did it once ahah )
i hope you will find a adequate cooling solution in the future (recommendation don't go custom loop albeit my 1st experience with it and no issue or leaking)

I work assembling computers since the age of 12, now I'm 22 years old.
From that arose the watercoolers in the PC market people interested, most of them not so much by cooling, but the beauty of the system with watercooler.

All watercoolers already installed for clients and for myself, these are the ones that have problems:
1 - Corsair H100 in a I7 3770K: Fans / Circuit Controller / leds: stopped working (the controller board crashed), yet the pump continued to function normally without leaks.
2- Corsair H80 in a FX8150: one of the fans malfunctioned.
3- Thermaltake BigWater 760 bomb burned after 08 months of use, still without leaks.

since 2012 we installed over 20 watercoolers to clients and friends of different brands, models. Even some custom loops (even in Brazil 6x they are more expensive, even after currency conversion). And I had never seen a pump or reservoir CRACK this way.

There is only one explanation: poor quality.

Awww I only assemble computers since I was 17 (I'm 34 this year)

On the poor quality argument, I want to add : it's not generic, since my unit has ZERO issues, maybe I am lucky, maybe not.

not even a creaking noise if I try to press on the tank, or when I screw the crossbar, and as you can see my unit look gorgeous and perform better than the H100i I mounted in a friend's build (who did cost nearly double the price and leaked after 3 month of use)

Your bad experience is unfortunate,

but the other users, whom you speak that they had similar issue could also have been at fault ( overtightened fittings and other mishandlings) one thing that I've learned assembling PCs : end user will never admit they did something wrong (example: a friend wanted to change the TIM on a Nepton 280 in a build I did for him, he re seated the block wrong 1st then overtightened the screws on the 2nd attempt and ripped the hole around the socket because he forgot the backplate then he told me he didn't do anything )

The problem with your argument is: I'm not the only one, Take a Quick search by hardware groups on Facebook in Brazil, hardware forums and etc.You will see that there are several people with the same problem. Poor quality, Raijintek: Never.

Edit: look at Neweeg, there is a bunch of ppl having the same problem. poor quality!

that's why i wrote :

and nope the Triton is not poor quality, at last not mine
i stop at that, it's enough for me ok just for one answer.

Fault? I'm 100% sure you're kidding me. Just look at newegg and see the amount of negative reviews and people who have had the same problem, even has a guy who had leak, exchanged another one and leaked again. poor quality products, end of discussion.

let's sum the negative review on the 3 product you linked: (in another post)

reviews in total : 74

1 egg : 14

5 eggs : 36

2 3 4 eggs: 24

albeit the good result in the end, i tend to not trust Newegg reviews (specially user review) as RCoon wrote already, Raijintek did correct that issue (or tried to ) and recalled (RMA) some unit that were affected by this issue.

"This. The OCUK forum thread for the Raijintek Triton is dozens of pages long. People have been complaining about cracked reservoirs similar to OP's. Apparently it was all down to a poor manufacturing process. If I recall Raijintek were in the process of recalling a shedload of units because of this, and working with retailers to deal with RMAs as quickly and easily as possible.

The annoying thing is that this has been going on for months. I expected this to be sorted by now."

you don't want that brand around you, fine.
altho if i were you i would not ask people to boycott their product because of a bad experience with it and judging by reviews of people that you don't know personally, otherwise i could to the same about Corsair, since me and some of my friends had issues with that brand, they are good for memory case but surely not for AIO in my own opinion but i will never try to entice people to think their product are shitty and such because i, and some friends, had some problems with them.

now the discussion is ended
