  1. Appreciate that man. It was a fun build to work on. Yea I'm very interested in trying Aurora 3 when it comes out. The 6-8 hours debacle was super stupid lol. I don't think they were expecting this many fails in systems. It made them look bad because it was marketed as an everyday fluid when it first came out as well. One of the biggest selling points was (It won't settle) which is another reason I wanted it. I wish them the best, and hope they can fix the issue soon. I probably could have gotten them to credit me, or send different fluid, but I went with what worked for me which was Mayhems Pastel. Thanks for that video link to Jay with his Vue issues. Watching it now. Ironic, because it was his earlier Vue video that made me purchase it lol Thanks Again! God Bless!!
  2. My bottles have noting on them at all about short term/long term, or for it being for show only. Like I mentioned in earlier posts when Vue came out they didn't say any of the stuff they are saying now in requirements etc...When I first purchased mine, there were also zero mentions of it not being compatible with Mayhems as well which is why I purchased it. All of that stuff was later added because of all the complaints they had.
  3. (Update 3/21/18 Pics Attached) Well this will be my last update on the Primochill Vue failure. It took about 8 hours to clean everything up. It wasn't difficult getting all the hardened/built up fluid to come off. I ran everything under hot water, and it came right off with a few rinses. The tubes looked new after I ran some hot water through them. I then covered both ends, and sloshed them around a bit, rinsed, repeat etc... The blocks were completely covered in the crap. Every channel was pretty much blocked. All the fittings, and flow holes had hardened fluid in them. The blocks came out looking new. I ordered the last three o-ring/seals for my GPU block that Performance-PCS had in stock, so I am good there for a while. I totally forgot to take after pics for the blocks, and tubes, but they came out great. The $.99 cent Mayhems fluid worked out great for now until I order the new stuff. I will do another clean with Blitz before I add that as well. I wanted to thank all you guys for your help, and suggestions. They all worked out super nice. P.S. (Almost slipped my mind, but make sure your alignment marks match when you put the pump back together) Thanks Again Guys! God Bless!!! (Pics Below)
  4. Really appreciate your help Science. It is very much appreciated. I checked out the post you linked. Very helpful info in there. I'll be getting some of the polish & Plastx you mentioned. I also found some replacement O-rings for my GPU seeing how the other user is expierencing the same issue. Found them for $3 something. If I order from EK they want $40 bucks shipping for a $5 buck order to the US lol. Good thing Performance PC has them. I will be getting Blitz as well. (Out of stock currently) might check Ebay. Yea they keep adding to the crazy list of requirements. Bunch of hoops you have to jump through to use this fluid. When I ordered this fluid, there were no mentions of Mayhems Pastel, or Mayhems causing an issue. I pre-ordered it the first week they started taking orders. That was another requirement they added later after users complained. Next they will require DNA, Fingerprint, and Stool sample to be able to use this fluid
  5. Hey Guys, Thought I would do a three month update. Well this fluid is not working for my build. My GPU and CPU blocks are pretty much completely blocked now. Pump flow is also super slow/restricted. Also, my tubes are developing a white film on the inside that is literally stuck to the tubes.It's almost like it crystallized in the tubes. Never seen that happen before. It's freaking nuts. I'm going to tear everything apart, and clean the blocks/tubes/rad next week. I'm going back to Mayhems. Never had an issue with it. I'm moving my system next month, so what I did was ordered some scratch&dent Mayhems Yellow/Lime pastel for $.99 cents a liter from Performance PC's. (Expired, but it's being changed out a few weeks later anyhow. This way I will have some fluid until I order the Mayhems color I want. I have to drain/clean all over again when I move the system. Win/Win for me considering it only cost a buck a liter. Any ideas on what I can use to clean the rad. I was thinking vinegar. Thoughts? Just wanted to update everyone. This fluid is of the Devil. Don't buy it
  6. Yea that's what my GPU block is looking like after Vue. Not as bad, but I will keep an eye on it. Bumming me out.
  7. I just received a reply from the Primochill team after sending pictures of my loop/specs etc... So I guess from the pics above this is completely normal for Vue to settle like this when the system is off for around 8 hours a time. If Primochill is cool with it, I am too. I will keep an eye on everything, and see how it goes. I'm still a little worried with the white particles that are built up in my GPU block. I think Primochill was more concerned that the particles remained settled in the loop/tubes when the system/pump was on, which is not my case. Everything mixes right back up when the system is back on. I do plan on getting Mayhems Blitz. I have a little left over from the prep when I built the system. I think blitz is a lot better then the Primochill reboot stuff.
  8. This is interesting. I pre-ordered when they first released Vue on the website, and I don't remember seeing this at all. I wonder if this was something they later added after complaints of customers who previously had Mayhems. Really appreciate your time, and help guys! God Bless!!
  9. Appreciate the help. I used Mayhems White Pastel before I added the Vue. Never used silver kill. I flushed the system for 24 hours with Primochill Reboot, and flushed multiple times with distilled water before adding the Vue.

  10. Hope so. I know jayztwocents said it doesn't settle like other fluids do. Hope your right. The stuff in my block won't move though. It was perfectly clean before adding the Vue.
  11. This is with the system off. Once I turn the system on, it will eventually circulate through the system until it is off again, and then it will settle.
  12. Hey Guys I got some Primochill Vue & some System Reboot a few days ago, and I am having some major issues. The issue I am having is it's settling in my tubes and reservoir. I used system reboot before adding the fluid. I also flushed the system multiple times with distilled water before adding the vue. My GPU block is also looking bad from particle build up. Have no clue why this is happening. I emailed Primochill support to see what they say. Maybe I got a bad batch? Never had this happen before.

  13. Hey Guys,I am trying to add a new fan to my Thermaltake Smart DPS G 650W Gold PSU. My issue is that the connection to plug the fan in, is not a standard fan pinout. The 12V pin is in a different pin location. After using the meter and figuring out what pin is 12V & GND, I need to confirm what is RPM, and PWM. Here are my colors/pinouts for the PSU.Any help or advice would be much appreciated!Thanks!God Bless!PSU Board Connection Pinoutx1 Black (GND)x2 Blue (PWM ?)x3 Green (+12 Power)x4 Yellow (RPM?)Standard Fan Pinoutx1 (GND) x2 (+12 Power) x3 (RPM)x4 (PWM)
