well yesterday was a fun day, was playing fallout the new vegas, when apparently my swiftech pump stopped working. i didnt notice anything was wrong untill my monitor turned off.
i immediatly turned and looked at my video card, the green light was red....... stuck my hand in the case and touched the backplate, ouch.... sizzling hot. needless to say i replaced the pump with a corsair pump i had layin around but the card makes a really hi pitched squealing sound now, almost sounds like a slaughtered pig.
i'm gonna have a closer look today to look for busted caps or anything unussual, as far as i know its a paperweight now, any advice to try and salvage this thing. i bought the pump brand new too, the other pump for my cpu is a used mcp 355 probly twice the hours, is this thing gonna fuckin puke on me too?
