After about a month of flawless performance, my poly-topped Dtek-spir@l developed a crack between the two chrome barbs. Luckily, only a tiny amount of water (which is now dry) leaked down the top of the block, but didn't touch any components. I'm guessing this crack developed within the last day given the amount of water that leaked, as I didn't notice a crack when I checked my system over on Sunday.

It's been said before by the senior members of this forum, and I have nothing else to do but say it again. Don't use metal barbs with a poly top. I'll probably be avoiding poly tops from now on.

I guess it's time to revive my old maze2. After I get my system cleaned up, I'll post some pics.
