Hp asetek liquid cooling refill

[Alero_]

Hi...i recently bought a used hp closed loop liquid cooling system made by asetek...there is no water in it...pls how do i get to refill it ?

You dont?
They are a closed loop. Not to be opened, not to be serviced, not to have liquid replaced.

Did you purchase it opened? Or did you open it?

I purchased it at a sort of scrap store here in nigeria...its all sealed with screws and nuts...my system still hits 90 degrees celsius with it, just as the old cooling fan

 

[Gam3r01]

Then what makes you think its empty?
Chances are it could be a different issue. Did you install it with the proper thermal paste? Is it getting enough airflow? Is the pump running?

The radiator fan works...the tubes get hot as if its hot air in it...the store owner doesnt know its condition

Are both tubes hot? That is typically a sign of no liquid flow.

Yes, both are hot

Cooler was probably broken from the start, hence why you dont see better temps.
I would invest in a decent air cooler instead.

Hmm...but my air cooler gives the same high temps...i almost returned the desktop...then i saw this one...hmm...i guess its broken...ok...thanks for your help
