Hi everyone,

I'm currently building my first gaming PC from scratch, everything was going well until I noticed that on the radiator of my AIO cooler there were a few bent fins.

Whilst I'm not that concerned about these fins in particular as I'm sure I can bend them back into shape, my main concern is the image below. I'm not sure if perhaps one of the water channels is damaged as there seems to be a crack along the fin as it leaves the channel with what looks like a mark?

I'm reluctant to send it back as there are no more left in stock and I'm eager to get my PC running over Christmas.

What are your thoughts?

Cheers.
