Default Yasya rust!

Hi, I bought a yasya cpu cooler 2 years ago and now it is starting getting rust in heatpipes. Is there anything I could to to prevent it from spread? Or it will be to change to a different cooler in some months cuz the warranty (2 years) ended last month....


Thanks

Hello Tiagowski,

E-Mail you get over PM.

Hello Tiagowski,

it looks like a oxidation on the caps of the heatpipes. Can you take a cleaning cloth (for the first step a dry cleaning cloth) and clean the caps ? Are the caps fixed or loose ? How is the cooling performance of the Yasya ( which temperature have the CPU under load & idle).

i tried to clean but nothing, the caps are fixed I change my thermal compound yesterday and my temps today are 37º at idle and 50º load (with prime95 for 40 minutes) my cpu is a phenom x4 965 be (125W)

It never went down then 32ºC ... (32º was when I built it for the first time)

Hello Tiagowski

the temperatures are okay! So the heatpipes don't leak. Please try to clean the cooler with wet cleaning cloth (with pure cleaning alcohol). You can use a Lens cleaning cloth for example ...

Can be a liquid passed through the heat sink - it looks so ?
