Hi Guys!

So here i am stucked on not using my AIO Cooler. i currently have Deepcool gamerstorm Maelstrom 240 rgb (http://www.gamerstorm.com/product/CPULIQUIDCOOLER/2018-05/1286_8347.shtml )

i have seen some reviews saying that most of deepcool AIO coolers gets leaks and i am worried to destroy my newly built pc.

i am planning to put some high resistant epoxy on the tubes.

is it okay to put epoxy on the tubes for this? or do you have any other suggestions except going for Air cooler.

please enlighten me fellow brothers.

No, do not do this.

AIOs can leak, but this isn't common. When you read about this online, you often only see the negative outcomes, rather than the number of positive ones that are in-use.

If you are that worried about leaks, perhaps you should just go with air cooling. Otherwise, just do not put a lot of pressure on the plastic angled fittings that exit the pump/CPU top and you should not have any issue.
