Well-
I was hasty. I have put on water blocks 4 times before this failure. I ignored that the nuts should be put on hand tight, measured from the top of the block to a bench mark like the top of the washer on each bolt, and THEN put two turns on each nut rotating from corner to corner measuring for parallel after each sequence.

So, if you go slow and measure carefully you probably won't repeat my mistake.

I just wish the Maze3 would cool as GOOD AS my Maze2 has!
Right now one degree C higher with Maze3, of course I have a different chip so that is one more variable in the equation.
