Hey

A while back I purchased a Swiftech waterblock for my NVIDIA GeForce 800GTS GFX to watercool my system. Last weekend it began to leak so I took the card out of the pc and used some silicone to seal up the barbs. Now, when I restart my pc, the display is very slow in loading and has huge white lines running down the screen, in and around the centre.

I noticed I ran out of coolant (I am getting more very soon). Could this just be the reason the display is 'playing-up' (card overheating) or does it sound like I have damaged the card in some way? If so, is what might I have done and can it be repaired?

I thank you all for helping me out

Many thanks

It could be a damaged card or low coolant. If you can put it back to air cooling I would try that and see what it does.
