Question about coolants

Um right well i just put my w/c loop back in and when i turned it on it leaked a tiny bit from the cpu barb but luckyily mpy gpu wasnt in, and i cant leak test it outside the case because of the way it fits in, anyway i did the hose clamp up much itghter and it seems to be fine now but when i feel the barb it does feel wet but no water is on my finger,as in none at all???
also how "non-conductive" is this coolant its feser-f1, i know leaks are bad anyway, but the only part at risk is my gpu would a few drops of that kill it completely??

Re: Question about coolants

actually, if your gpu gets a little wet from coolant, it is NOT 100% dead. there are ways to save them, the best way being from CyberDruid:

Re: Question about coolants

Re: Question about coolants

if there is no liquid, your fine. ever put on a latex glove then ran water over the latex? thats probably what you are feeling. if there is no drip, no worry :) fesser is (most likely) anti freeze, aka ethelyne glycol. just dont drink it and your fine. i would check for sure but the computer im on right now isnt the best =/
