I just installed a pair of swiftech mcw60s and unisinks on a pair of 6970s. Sparks flew out of the top one when I turned it on. Ive been water cooling cpus for a couple years, but this is my first foray into gpu cooling. Any ideas on what I did wrong and tips on not doing it again?
I should have pictures of the disassembled parts tomorrow.
10 bucks says the Pcb bent a tiny bit and caused a short on the unisink.
Swiftech is telling me the backplate standoffs weren't the right length, so too much mounting force was used. Gonna make myself a new backplate, but I'll post carnage pics tomorrow.
