Even if they did disclaim liability, I doubt it would hold in court. The primary purpose for a waterblock is to cool your computer. When a company sells a WB, they imply that it won't leak, and ruin your computer. DDen states prominently that their blocks are pressure tested to 85 PSI, implying that they certainly would not leak under normal cooling conditions of only a few PSI. Bottom line: If DDen asserts that their blocks won't leak, and then disclaims any liability for product failure, they're still screwed.

Well Im not 100% sure how well this would all hold up. Since if they don't exactly state the use of the product, then Im not sure about legal issues.
I do know how we stand in UK - and a potential lawsuit is always likely if you release a product that fails during normal owrking conditions.
hence we we don't release anything until we are 100% confident.
Who does the R&D on blocks for DD ?
