Preventing Corsair H100 leaks

[Jaskaran]

Hello
Just decided to purchase corsair h100i extreme performance (and bla-bla).
But I have seen many cases where it messed systems by leading, especially neat the paint of hozel joints.
So my question is simple- how do I prevent it from leaking? Should I put some tape or something at critical points?
My case is cooler master 690 2 Plus.

EDIT:
Oops. I think I posted in wrong section. Sorry about that if that's the case.

Buy a aircooler much better and reliable and there is peace of mind......bliss is the word.

@OP: What is your system config ?

Liquid coolers, especially h80 and above, are for extreme OCing.

No way to prevent leak, if it leaks, your system is gone, should have asked us this question before buying it, always advise people to stay away from water coolers, in USA if it leaks corsair will replace all damages products, not in India.

Omg!
But I already spent 14k on h100i extreme performance.
I wanna overclock core i7 3770k to atleast 4.5GHz.

You could get more with Noctua D14

How about M-seal

Such kind of accident is yet to happen in India.

How about M-seal

Suck kind of innovation may not work due to high pressure of liquid.

think[digit] before you leap.
4.5Ghz is easy peasy on good quality air coolers worth <<<<14k.

H80i is better than H100i if you see certain tests. Swiftech H220 is also another good cooler with thicker tubing+ a fillport which all those closed-looped coolers don't have. 14k for a cooler is just not right.

CORSAIR CPU COOLER H100i .........................7.7k is the price for h100i....what exactly did you buy for 14k?

My question too.

@OP: You are wasting money if you are buying a H100i for just 4.5ghz.

[rock2702]

Running i5 3570k at 4.5ghz clock speeds,at 1.28V vcore ,auto LLC and 1.8V pll voltage.Ran prime95 for an hour,the hottest core aka 2nd core reaching 76 degrees.

 

[rajan1311]

though i dont have any numbers to show, on paper at least, the HOC 40 should be better...it has a much thicker (45mm) copper rad....all you need is some better fans...

 

[Godoftheforbiddenlight]

i still don't get which h100i cost's 14k :/

From the shops that fool people by showing them the MRP.

Rule of thumb: All computer items have upto 40% higher MRP's printed on them compared to selling price, many don't know this.
