"water cooling"

Alright guys i need a hand again. I was interested in setting up water cooling on my computer but i think i did it wrong. I bought one of thos mini hose pipes and set it to drip 5ml of water onto the processor a day, but no sooner had it done this it started smoking and now no longer works, have i configured this wrong? more to the point how do you guys drain the excess water from the bottom of the case as it is now starting to flood.

Thanks

Ashley

i thought so at first when i saw the black scorch on it, but to my surpeise it booted!

Yeah, electricity and water never did mix very well, did the processer not fry completely?

in hindsight it was a bit stupid dig, don't worry though i have disconnected the tubing and drained the case, i took the mobo out and left it on top of my boiler over night, ive just put it back in the case, and miraculously it actually boots. its making a strange rattling noise ans has a black scorch mark on it but it seems to be running ok, if not a little slower.

You know April fools day was 13 days ago dont you. No one can be that stupid

thanks a lot guy....cos you didn't help me my carpet is now ruined, i'm gonna have to sue you all.

lol

Hehe, nearly fell hook-line and sinker on this one.

:D

I hope for your sake you are joking.

i did what cookie did and didn't buy a perpacked kit. bought "sprinkle-matic" from my local garden centre then aimed one of the drips at the processor, hadto put some sellotape on the ram to stop it getting wet. Luckily my graphics card shields the other pci cards.
