bitspower 250mm res tube max temp

whats the max temp the bitspower 250mm acrylic  res good till ? havent been able to find a temp that is reliable saw something about 50c but i dont think its that low btw this is a custom loop  thanks

The water in your loop should never exceed 50C, thats probably also your max temp for your res, it is for my XSPC res.

Water loops don't get that hot, but material wise the res is made of acrylic and acetal where their melting temps are well above 100C. however you never want your loop to reach anywhere close to 100C since the water will start to boil and steam which can pop off a hose in a closed loop due to the expansion.

There will be troubles even at 60 C already.

i had my first warm day here hit 70f outside my pc was running at low 20c's idle and high 20's under load in the winter .when my room temp from it being nice out for once my temps  shot up and  my pc hit 35c-40ish for the  water temp. just didnt like that it got so high . this was when it was running under near max load for about 12-18h

At 60C it should be ok still the only thing to really worry about is the seals or acrylic failing over the long term with the repetitive heating and cooling, but that's quiet warm for a liquid cooled loop.

I cover mobo and all pc with non-conductive glue and push water cooling loop for 4-5 C, so there is some condensed water, but it doesn't damage the system, because of the glue. Need it for much faster computations.

Most pumps are only rated for 50C, so I might worry about pump faliure if you ran over 50C for any length of time.
