I prefer mayhems one, ive not used the other one, honestly i dont have much experience with custom loops so i doubt im a trustworthy source.

IMO mayhem pastel looks incredible with good lighting. The colour is opaque so it looks like as if you've used a colour tubing.

If you're going for aesthetics then mayhem pastel is the one to go. Ice dragon fluid is expensive because it lasts longer in your loop. Either is a good coolant to use.

No, you can buy 1lt of ice dragon fir the price of a 250ml mayhems, mayhems is much more expensive. The lighting in my system is a NZXT Hue so it is pretty good i wonder if mayhems will make a noticeable diffrence because i care about looks alot and willing to spend more on better looks but i dont want to waste money too. :)

That 250ml of Mayhems is a concentrate that gives you 1 liter with 750ml of distilled water. So unless distilled water is expensive where you are from, the Mayhems is cheaper.

Ohh i didnt know that i ve read a lot of good things about mayhems so if the price is equal i will pick mayhems anyday :) should i get the mayhems h20 water to go with it? And also how much water do i use with that 250ml mayhems i linked? (like is it 3ml to 1ml which would equal 250 to 750 = 1lt)

Ice dragon really comes into the frey at higher temps, I have tried Mayhems variant as mayhems and ice dragon are partners. I'd stick with pastel mate.

If you have easy, inexpensive access to distilled water then just buy that- no need for fancy pure water.

It is a 1:3 ratio of pastel concentrate to water as mentioned on the product page.

can i use the water i drink? i am still alive so it should be distilled enough?

 

but i really dont want to risk it D: can i use that Mayhems H20 water?

You can use the mayhems water, it's just distilled water that has been filtered extra times.

 

Do not use mineral or tap water.
