Take for example, your pump dies, pressure in the loop builds up and a tube pops off a barb, a grand in hardware destroyed, 10 bucks in clamps is cheap insurance.
Ya i ordered clamps, either they sent me the wrong ones or i ordered the wrong ones. They'll get clamped eventually. I have to order a new board from newegg anyway as the DFI boards like to die if i push them past 440 FSB.
Well i figured the first one was just bad, the 2nd one did the same thing, so now i wont be buying a third. You cant judge off just one board. Especially since all the reviews have been good. But i'm guessing i'll be going rampage formula next.
