Hello everyone, I bought this AIO cooler couple of weeks ago and just opened the box and there are some damages on the radiator:

Would these cause a problem, like leaking? If yes, I got it from Amazon, should I contact them or Cooler Master? If you'd say, that it wouldn't cause a problem, I don't mind, I'll just use it like this.

Thanks for all answers from now on.

Amazon do easy returns within 30 days, so if you want a replacement, that's the route I'd go.

As for whether it's a problem ... if it's not leaking, then I doubt it would be (it looks ugly and might impede airflow a bit, but it should still work - just have a look at your average car radiator...). Not ideal, and I'd return it on principle, but ...

Thats just some damaged fins - thats not a problem, it will not leak. If it leak u should notice it by now. Youre fine :) In the other hand - if u can RMA it and that nasty look bothers you ask them to replace it. I personaly would not worry about it - u will cover it with fans anyway.
