The fact that you're changing your policy on not being willing to take on rigs that involve being shipped to you, just so you can help eleviate this increasing issue that no one else is talking about, shows how comendable you are. Not as not just a PC repair person, but an overal human being. People put a lot of money into their builds/pre-builds, and they shouldn't be screwed over, and you're helping fix that. Good for you.

😂 I was thinking exactly the opposite. I don't know if this is trolling or pure ignorance? Greg channel is WAY smaller than Linus Tech Tips. Linus Media Group have like over 100 employees now and over 15 millions of subscribers just on their main channel and they have like 8 different channels or something now. Greg records his videos alone at home. I'm not even sure if he have an actual cameraman on most of his videos now. This is nothing against Greg, I love his videos. Greg's videos are awesome and have great quality content. I really love the Fix & Flop series or the series at Micro Center. It is really nice to see RU-vidr using his money he made from RU-vid to help others for free. Seriously, if LTT was a small channel, how could they manage to make their own screwdrivers on their own online store shipping worldwide? It is not a cheap Chinese screwdrivers with a name on it, it is a custom one, made following their own specs. Just this screwdriver alone took literally years to engineer, looking at many different parts suppliers, control quality, etc.

@WTFZOMG 11 месяцев назад

known issue with kaby lake -> rocket lake CPUs. intel made the PCBs thinner to save cost, which made them more likely to bend if inserted incorrectly. some foxconn sockets were also known to cause bending even on correctly installed chips.

@ArkaniumGaming 11 месяцев назад

For me, this is twice now. The first one was an intel chip [don't remember what one] while mounted and working, the cooler was too tight. After some time, the system wouldn't run. When the chip heated up, it was slowly bending. This caused the chip to completely fail.

Hey Greg, would you ever consider making a video on how to clean and fix these gunk issue on AIOs? I know 100% that it is a manufacturer issue and they should be held liable, but given my experience with RMA issues/delays, some people, like myself, would rather fix the issue themselves and not deal with crappy RMA processes.

Hi Greg, (All the way from Australia) Wanted to thank you for letting me know about the Lian Li Galahad recall on AIO's, my Temps very hitting 90+ intermittently ( early stages minor clog i suspect) on tmy 5900x causing my machine to reboot for a little bit. It caused me to decide to drop the TDP down to 65w & even undervolt just to get by not knowing what had changed (also being not able to replace it financially at the time). Fast forward i sent a quick email to LianLi a week & a half ago, confirmed its within the date range of that potentially faulty units & after a few short emails had my new one on its way (direct from factory) which was very interesting. Just received my new one yesterday the process was so easy! Thanks again will be installing the new one & raising my TDP back up to what it should be!!

Regarding the AIO clogging: I've seen a few videos online of people repairing it by draining the cooler, cleaning the cold plate with alcohol and a toothbrush and then replacing the coolant. Since these coolers are lost causes anyway, it would be interesting to see if this repair can actually work. I suppose that if the pump isn't too damaged, then it should be theoretically possible.

I went from an air cooler to an AIO back to an air cooler. AIOs are neat n all and great if you're doing OC but they're not particularly needed. If you have a case that has a lot of airflow through it then all you need is a nice air cooler. I currently have Fractal Meshify case with a Scythe Fuma cooler and a bunch of Artic Cooling fans.

All these clogged AIO's make me think a good air cooler is a better way to go. Never have to worry about clogged cooler.

Exact same pre build from I buy power. 3 years of use, same issue. I actually got a new rig since. Once I had the new build I took apart that IBuyPower aio & it looked exactly the same. I did however manage to clean out nasty growth/gunk/slime off of the micro fins & refill the loop, Resealed the rubber gasket & hooked it back up. Thing runs at 32 degrees now & charted well above it’s expected performance level. Was going to sell it but I think it might come in hand in the future.

I had a Fractal AIO that did the same thing, I switched to a Scythe Fuma 2 and things are good now.

Tip for newbie PC builders: if it doesnt fit, dont force it (for ram check that the alignment cut is aligned correctly with the motherboards DIMM slot)

I have an Antec Kuhler aio from an lga 1155, i7 2600 antec prebuild in one of my pc's and it still performs quite well

A good idea would be to have an ssd with windows and test the system (temperatures and stability) to see if the system works 100%. Good video, keep up with the great work!!

There are even enclosures for NVME drives now that use USB3.2, so it would be even easier to plug in.

I just got an iBuyPower prebuilt on Black Friday. Its been great so far, but do i need to worry about the AIO cooler?

Good call on the air cooler. After all I have seen with AIOs... I don't want one unless it's the only way to cool the CPU. And even then I would look for other CPU/case options.

If you buy a prebuild its best to buy one with aircooling. An AIO will usualy fail sooner or later. Either they glog like this one or the pump dies. With aircooler you only need to worry about the fan or fans. And those are usualy very easy and cheap to replace.
