Most likely, they will probably test you for it anyways so they dont flush your stomache and there ended up not being ethelyne glycol, either way there is something thats probably dangerous. And I know this is serious but I actually want to know how you managed to drink a whole cup...

Bro, GO TO THE HOSPITAL/DOCTOR/CALL POISON CONTROL! Gosh dude. Although calling poison control is probably the best thing to do.

What temperature readings are you getting when you stick a thermometer up your backside? You may need to mount an external radiator if temps aren't any good. Of course, you will need surgical screws in order to achieve a secure fitting, and preferably soft tubing. Don't go hardline, bad idea. Pump placement could be tricky though.

Do what a lot of other sensible people are saying and go to your local A&E (Accident and Emergency/Hospital). Get the advice from healthcare professionals and not us!

 

To be on the safe side I would also drink plenty of water to dilute it and flush it out of you. Reducing the concentrating is always going to be a good idea.

 

Hope everything goes well, let us know how you get on.

If you are wise you should have contacted a doctor at least by now. But then again, you drank AIO cooler liquid...

The only way I could remotely see this happening is if he drained his loop into a gatorade bottle or something, then accidentally took a gulp from it quickly.  A few drops of antifreeze in your mouth won't hurt you (it's gross, you'll notice immediately, and spit it out), but actually swallowing any real amount is bad new bears.

 

I used to run 25% Automotive coolant / 75% distilled water in my loop, but switched to nontoxic antifreeze (Propylene Glycol) once children being near my PC became a possibility.

 

Ethanol (aka booze) is used in the treatment of Ethylene Glycol poisoning.  So drink up OP, if you're actually still alive.

Are you okay?

I mean if you drink it you should puke it out.

Press the little thing behind your tongue and throw everything out.

He was in an intense CSGO match and needed a drink but could not leave his pc so he decided to crack his AIO open and chug it for some of that refreshing poison cocktail.

simple, someone else was emptying the liquid into a cup and he walked along and went "mmmmm, what a lovely looking cup of water, sure it has a AIO pipes in it, but it looks so refreshing" so the OP decided to drink it, and just as he finished the friend started shouting at him for not drinking all of it, so he finished drinking it,then the "friend" started laughing at him for doing it and explained.

 

other option he is an idiot and did it for £5
