just moved some fans around n noticed my rad sploshing when I moved it as if its running pretty low on coolant after all these years.

 

I can "think" of a few ways to top it up but I'm not wanting to rip it apart and re-hose it so the easiest way would be to open up the pump and top it up that way.

I'm just wondering if anyone has any proper/easier methods and recommendations on which coolant to use.

short version = f&*k corsair.

slightly longer version = f*&k corsair with a chainsaw sideways from behind.

long version = after my experience with corsair support and "rma" of my ssd that they used dodgy chips in and recalled, I wont ever waste my time on them again ;) and no I didn't even get a replacement/rma/fix of it when it died after 6months of use.

If your temps are fine I would just leave it, taking the hosing off or taking the block apart is just begging for issues here.
