Build-up in GPU block - should I be concerned?

[Podgster]

Hi all,

 

I finished my custom loop about 2 weeks ago and over the last 3 days I've noticed slight build-up of a white substance inside the GPU block (image attached).

 

Is this something I should be overly concerned about?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is normal as some amout of stuff will be left over from fabrication. I would take it apart and clean. But you could try rinse and repeat

Probably just some minor precipitate, if you are using a coolant with anticorrosives and biocide, I wouldn’t worry about it, probably will clean off just fine when you next open the block during maintenance.

One of my blocks has a fingerprint in it from the chinese guy who handled it.  The print lifted like CSI when they do the superglue thing.

 

TDLR it's impossibly difficult to get a loop that is crystal clear and flawless everywhere.  It doesn't affect performance.
