The owner is an incredibly lucky person. With all that leaking and non functioning pump and the pc is still alive.

[@euphoriess]

all thanks for the expensive motherboard with full cover on it, there are lots of drops splashed on those shield
otherwise the liquid should have shorted some thing

[@raydiaz9218]

Incredibly lazy 😂

[@RTX4080SUPERGAMING]

I mean the normal situation is to work at the end if you clean all the parts and dry them. Expensive parts are often durable. He would be unlucky if his parts could not work after the cleaning. So i would not call that rly lucky. I don't think these liquids are that extremely harmful to the components. Yes they can kill them but not directly , if you see that fast enough.

[@hamett356]

Why not?, liquid coolants are not conductive, cpu and gpu´s shut it off at the max temps so there is no chance to get damages. The only thing is that you have to do all this clean work wich it´s a pain in the ass.

[@DrMuFFinMan]

Love some good PC cleaning videos, really good work on the cleaning and upgrade solution (clear coolant for the win). Thanks for the video, and I'd say he was lucky the solution in the coolant didn't dye the acrylic. Water cooling is pretty awesome but most people forget the maintenance and to keep an eye on everything, thankfully he didn't loose both his motherboard and nvme drives.

[@danielturunen7237]

Awesome job on the deep cleaning and reassembly of the PC! :)

what is that spray liquid that you are using for remove the color from the loop parts. Sometimes its so hard to remove from acrilics or cooper parts. In the video looks really easy to work with.

[@DesignsByIFR]

I start with windex glass cleaner. It removes it so easily

[@get2choppa]

As much as I like and made pcs of my own with hardline tubes and more boutique fluids like ek solid or primochill vue, I learned to turn more to soft tubing and clear liquid and use rgb reservoirs and such.

[@wickedwonka999]

i was waiting for this video please make more videos for repairing, god bless you man nailed it.

Maybe flat black paint to touch up the rear pump mount holes. As for the screws on GPU water blocks, use Dremel to make flat head cuts so they can be removed and replace the screws.
What company sold this build?

Yyes if it was my own gpu i would do exactly that
