Only way to really know what is going on is a reading of your water temps and your water delta. Have they increased at all or has your delta remained constant? If your delta is the same and your gpu temps have increased then it will point to your gpu or gpu block. If your delta has increased then something else is going on in your loop and it could be a blockage.
If you dont have any water temp data has your cpu temps risen at all over and above the recent ambient temps? This is assuming your cpu is in the same loop as the gpu.
You mention your block has bowed, have you taken a straight edge to the block?
Thanks for the reply, was
going to have a closer look at the block tomorrow, getting old now even with glasses my eyes struggle to focus doing fine work for any length of time
Looked like acetal cover and the pcb might be bowed.
As you say, I could imagine water temp being handy. As for cpu I'm pretty lazy checking temps, been a while since I set my overclock but they didn't look bad when I checked the other day.
Blockage along with pump was my first thought, I did flush my system ready for new gpu but I used my wetvac without pump in place to shoot through 10 litres - was probably a bit violent thought I could have dislodged something. Having stripped everything down and good clean all seems good and obstruction free, just swapped my cpu block for an older one I had as oring was degrading that and using my spare pump covers it I think
Gpu I think is where the problem lies but can't find anything on the internet with temps rising over short space of time.
I think the chips dying or something's not contacting properly any more - bad Tim batch?
Tried doing as ek instructed with double cross- won't be doing that again usualy do P, lot of excess run off. First time I've ever had to remove block after fitting found it strange to find a pretty noticeable small rectangle In centre of die though. Suppose I'll find out if I got a problem soon enough when I refit the block.
