Coolant?

Go to solution Solved by 0ld_Chicken,

@yazerak Regular pastel will be your best bet if you want opaque coolant, just stay away from the pastel extreme

 

@W-L @Enderman @TheRedViper just FYI Pastel extreme is pretty much straight Ethylene Glycol.  Only the non-extreme pastel should be used with PETG

Mayhems pastel stuff looks amazing, i know verry little about water cooling so i dont know if its glycol free but they look amazing

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Go with mayhems pastel, its amazing, just make sure you use distilled water to mix the concentrate and I recommend buying their cleaning kit to clean both your rad and your loop before adding the mix, its very efficient. This is my build with mayhems red pastel.
