Hey guys,

A few weeks ago I put together my own water cooling loop. However, when I installed it into my computer, it leaked over my motherboard killing it. The reason it leaked was because one of the tubes popped off when I was mounting the cpu block (plastic clamp came loose). I am now afraid of ruining my parts again, but I still would like to use the system.

Even though I did a leak test originally, it obviously leaked. I was wondering what the best clamps are that are tight, but do not cut into the tubbing. I have been looking at the sping clamps on www.mcmaster.com.

Any other ideas?

You can just use automotive worm drive clamps, save a shipping charge, just don't over tighten them, it can cut through your tubing if you do...
