Hello! I am thinking to buy a water cooler for my pc. But not sure which one will be good. I want silence and performance from the product like everybody 🙂 also i need to know if any something goes wrong with the cooler and water leak out from and broke my gpu, motherboard or something etc. will the brand give me money or new gpu, m.board etc?

Firstly below in the forum is a EKWB Partner Forum - the last entry is a great write up on the EK X360 kit and then secondly nobody is going to refund you for a leak on an open loop - I would strongly suggest you look at the Corsair H100i or something as closed loop circuits don't easily leak. I will put the link below on the write up and I believe it's a good place to start.

The link for closed loop circuits

hope this helps

thanks for your reply. if i buy from corsair, cm or any company and if a leak from that water cooling product broke my other computer parts will they reimburse? or will they change the water cooling kit only?

I really don't know the answer, I believe they will only replace their product, it will be in their terms, but you can always email their support to ask, but if I read this correctly the answer is no, also depends on your consumer laws and rights.

H100i here on 2 systems I built and no issues with leaking at all. Its a nice clean unit for closed loop.
Maximus XI Formula, I9-9900k, Phantex Evolove X, Seasonic Titanium 850W, Custom loop PE360+SE360 Rad, G.Skill Trident Z F4-3200C14 32g, Nvidia Reference RTX 2080 TI, Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1Tb, Windows 11

Check out Swiftech I have the H240x and love it it's a little more on the higher side of price but it gives you the option to make a custom loop in the future it keeps my FX-9590 cool.

where can i buy that product?

If you want absolute assurance, you may want to just buy the entire system from a boutique system builder. They'll warranty the entire system and if something like a leak as your describing happens, they'll cover it all.

can you give me a name for it please?

thanks to you all for your answers. also checked the h240x it looks well but a lil bit expensive 🙂

custom watercooling = you void warranty on all parts in case of leaking.

IO coolers ( like corsairs H100i ) each manufactor have their own warranty and rules and so on.

witch i would recomment read on the one you are going to go for from that manufactor.
