My question, regarding the warranty covering water damaged components if a leak occurs, was answered. Not too sure that the answer makes me feel secure enough to buy one of these.

Hi chrisdglong,
In the extremely unlikely event that this occurs, then it will be reviewed on an individual case by case basis.
I was reading the "tug of war" and my response towards that is > That's by far the first thing everyone should be asking about this GTX 980 hybrid, I thank you for that
....I mean it's common sense for EVGA or any other company to be thinking first about "leakage coverage" when a project like this were just talked about. I could be wrong, but believe CoolIt were the first with this self contained LC-GPU concept and product until they closed that section down for some reason!?
"Corsair"
and that was back in 2003-2004, since then I've been saying' one day this will be the "norm", but like always they will slowly "milk that cow the best way they know how" $$$$ then introduce it only with specific GPU's $$$$....It took a few modifiers to create there own type self contained LC-GPU frame and sell it within overclocked forums, pretty much work for those that were willing to risk it. That's how I know that NZXT Kraken cooler came about, NZXT were smart taking on and selling that product and now we have these companies competing for future self contained LC-GPU's
I want to see Corsair LC-GPU version and their coverage, I read and know they honored a few in the past on forum for leakage damage.
