    I think you should clean it before you jump to conclusions, shouldn't harm anything.

    As for the damage, I think that if there would have been any damage done, you would have already noticed it. So i'm pretty confident that your card is fine.

    It's the concentrate Ekoolant. Probably about quarter of a bottle of this in my loop.

    Can that small radiator breathe where it is?
    Sure, you have ventilation in the side panel but I can't see what's behind that small rad.
     
    That said. The extra radiator space and the other rads in the loop likely compensate for whatever "hot" air could get trapped in the second chamber.
     
    Still, gotta admit, that is one beastly Air240 setup. Very nice.
     
    I'd say keep the small rad in. But also keep an eye on your PSU for the next couple days.
    Assuming it's one with a fanless mode, see if it spins up at odd times or more often than before.
    If not, you're golden.

    It's Mayhems X1 - Oil Black Concentrate in distilled water, just looks "fizzy" atm due to only being running for like 3 hours in these pics.

    So I've finally got round to adding some more rads to my Corsair Air 240. I just had a 240 rad in push pull in the front, but thought I'd need more with my GTX970 being watercooled and my 4790k being overclocked to 4.6ghz.
     

     
    Single rad in push/pull.
     
    After starting a thread a while back about whether adding a slim rad was a good idea, but it meant losing the push pull on the front, decided that bigger volume was going to be better. So squeezed this on the floor of my case.
     

     
    Rad added to the floor, 2 x 80mm fans added also as my VRM was getting way hot!!
     
    I then realised there's a 120mm fan cutout in the rear panel, why not try and squeeze in an extra small rad in the back,. However, I ordered a nice thick EK Rad and now there is very little space around this rad and fan combo. 
     

     
    Is this rad actually worth keeping do we think?? Is it doing any extra cooling rammed in the rear?? 
     
    PS, Yes I am using Dr Pepper as a cooling fluid, what's the worst that could happen??
