[SOLVED] Is it worth for a PC technician to learn water cooling?

[Rodion15]

I'm a PC technician and still training. I'd like to get opinions on this:
Is it worth expending some time learning water cooling for PCs (game PCs etc)?. I also thught it may be too fiddly and undocumented with different brands using different ways so it may not be worth learning this for a PC technician (I repair PCs and Macs for everyday folks).

I thought of building a couple of these PCs and then reselling them just to learn.

Is there any courses for this around London? Maybe online courses?

Any advice much welcome.

You might want to read through the watercooling sticky. I wouldn't suggest you take up any schooling but you will need to educate yourself on the matter.

IMHO, you should learn first then do, that means not having your client base/clientele be your guinea pigs.

Thanks for the advice. I'll give up on this, water cooling seems too fiddly and I don't like customers coming back it's leaking here and there and it damaged the motheroboard and so on.

As a PC technician you should learn about any any and every thing about PCs and that includes cooling, You would be a poor technician if you don't. Like they say "A little knowledge is more dangerous than total ignorance". I would avoid any "technician" like that of any trade.

Unless we speak about high grade super computers you do not need much special knowledge for water cooling, just apply common sense, i. e. avoid bends more than 90°, check the pump to be powerful enough to allow your fluid flow. There is a reason why water cooling is done by none technicians, it is not rocket science.
