What

>>60230111
>Cooler Master

Scythe does NOT have this issue :^)

>>60230111
get fucked dude lol

copper heatpipes are hollow and contain gas/liquid

I know but why would they explode?

>>60230520
I mean do we even have CPUs that get that hot?

i7 7700k running over 3.8GHz without being delided, obviously. Intel told you guys not to overclock.

>>60230111
sure, after you beat it with a hammer and cut it.
Your a fgt and your phone is from 2006

the guy who originally posted the pic said he heard escaping gas and then a loud explosion. so there probably was some kind of structure failure which created a tiny air gap. once you have a hole in there the whole thing will try to release its pressure through that hole, causing it go explode.

>overclocking
why would anyone do this

>I know but why would they explode?
Too much heat not enough cooling. The working fluid which is most likely water totally boiled then busted the pipe that was acting as a pressure vessel

I'd bet that the cooling fans stopped and the whole thing busted.

>>60231035
it's not water.

I would lean more towards a defective unit. These things should be expected to withstand whatever temperature the CPU pushed it up to, since the CPU apparently didn't even have the chance to throttle/shut itself down before the pipe gave out.

Unless the 7700k's Tjunction is like 200 degrees or something.

>have the same cooler for 11 years
>no problem since

heatpipes doesn't explode you dip
it's cutted
