Have you contacted Deepcool, and are they going to do anything to compensate you?

F..k, that is some serious damage right there.
As suggested, contact DeepCool, and ask for RMA and refund for damaged parts.

If you are lucky, they will honor the waranty and damage to your PC.

Can you show me how to contact Deepcool ? I bought it from a distributor and they just gave me a renewed other cooling. And damaged components they do not care

thank you very much

If you want to get somewhere with them, try being polite and thorough in your explanation of what happened. Give them a full list of specifications and a timeline of how it all went down. I would also keep the "fail" images to yourself for now;)

You might have a problem if you already returned the product to the retail shop.
Be prepared to have the store verify the return and that it was leaking, so that you can prove to Deepcool that the product was defective.
