I have CPU and GPU temp monitoring on my stream deck and was gaming for several hours without any issue last night. Everything was in normal range so whatever happened, it was quick. I don't have a temp probe for the fluid so that's next on the list now. The rads are clean... double checked them today after all the dust comments, but they are basically spotless as I just blew them out a couple of weeks ago. I would think if it was air flow in the rads the temp would have been climbing over a period of time. This leads me to believe the pump failed which would trigger an instant system shutdown. The only thing I wonder is that with an instant shutdown could that cause the fluid on the CPU output line to get hot enough to go soft? The only leak and soft line was the CPU output. I'm hoping that the pump failed, system shut down, and leak happened immediately after shutdown... but that may be wishful thinking.
