Hello, first time ltt forum poster so sorry for any mistakes about posting. I have a corsair HydroX loop (all corsair parts except for EK fittings and clear cryofuel) I filled in mid june 2021 and now it has these little fluffy white chunks stuck to the walls of the res and in the fins of the cpu block. I don't think its biological considering that its gotten to a point where it doesn't seem to be getting any worse and the coolant doesn't have any smell. Once I get this cleaned up, I plan on switching to Primochill LRT Advanced tubing. If this is actually plasticizer, are there any products that will dissolve it for flushing without having to disassemble my entire system? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

  • drain & disassemble your loop
  • open up the blocks, clean them with used toothbrush

afaik epdm tubing don't have plasticizer, but they're usually 10/16mm size so your fittings won't work

 

I went with alphacool epdm tubing & barrow 10/16 fittings
