Hi All,

I purchased a Corsair H115i AIO from Amazon and after inspection I have noticed some irregularities. I understand bent fins will not affect my cooling performance but there is a slight bend on one of the cooling channels...

Can you please advise if this is okay to install and operate? I don't want to go through all the pain of replacing an item from Amazon.

I have attached pics for your review

before you remove the regular cooler plug the corsair in so the pump has power and see if it leaks. If it doesnt dont worry about it. I went to open up the screw hole on a Danger Den 480mm radiator and drilled right into one of the channels. slapped some JB weld on it, made sure it didnt leak and 5 years later still going strong.

I cant power it as this is my first build! I carefully moved the radiator around to get some movement from coolant and I saw no leak...
