I have distilled water mixed with ek’s concentrated fluid(I forget what it’s called) in my loop with a gpu block, cpu block, 360 and 240 radiators. I just got my primochill vue fluid in and I was curious if there was a way to flush out the loop without disconnecting radiators and blocks as my tubing fits very tightly around the barb and is a pain to remove or put on and I’m lazy.

You must use primochill system reboot, otherwise your VUE will likely fade or fall out and clog the systrm. Flush system with distilled water until it' clear and then use the system reboot for 48 hours or so. Then drain the loop and dry throughly.

 

Basically everybody who has had problems with the VUE has not done the above steps.

 

If you are lazy, don't use the VUE.

Unfortunately when it comes to VUE, being lazy about it doesn't pay off. If you want to use it, make the extra effort, otherwise you might be back here with complaints about the fluid ;-)

Have a read through this. I've digested the 520 posts for you and others. Don' just take one Youtubers word for it. Many people who are being lax with the Vue are having major issues with it.
