Petg vs acrylic

[rockon5622]

I have been reading and am wanting to say petg. But the low melting point scares me. Any advice.

@W-L he can help but always buy more than you need to so then if you do mess up it's fine

Unless you're components are pegged at 100C for hours at a time and you can actually get the liquid to raise to that level, you're not going to have any issues.

The temperature of the water will be a good bit lower than the component temps and will equalize at a certain point as well. So unless you're doing something like running an FX series processor, overclocked, with several Fiji based GPUs also overclocked on a single 120mm rad then that won't happen

You'll be alright with PETG, it's been the common go to over say acrylic due to it's ease of use and forgiveness. It's melting point is way higher than what your fluid temps will ever reach within the loop, and a good metric is your fluid shouldn't ever get past 60C due t the pumps sake for longevity.
