    I let the every thing dry and put back together with my old radiator
    when i reboot the ccc show up asking me to enable cross fire mode ???
    okay then I run some test and gpu one not working
    o% usage in gpu-z
    I try everything
    driver sweeper,reinstall drivers , system restore
    nothing work, even the desktor run slow and some time it look weird
    the I take some screen shot of all the tests the image in the monitor cut out ,now is really toast
    the only thing I can thing to try next before I sued the people that sell this knowing that the are defective is to flash the bios maybe the one from gpu 2 got erased

    I don't know if this has anything todo with this,but, remember the latest catalyst driver turns off one core when not in use, I really hope this is all that is happenning. I know with my two 5870's in crossfire the second one reads 0 in overdrive and gpu-z. Although for some reason they're both running now with nothing that should be using the 2nd gpu.

    That just plain sucks completely. It's like having a Ferrari, only to have a car ram into it after you get out.

    My worst fear of using H20 cooling. Is this common or just a bad product?

    dude is safe I been doing it for year never a problem,you never see your car leaking coolant if you check that the hoses are good with reliable parts ,magicool is garbage
    I'm replacing them with black ice xtreme 2
