Thats; exactly what I was gonig to say, that way also keeps options open regarding other colours and the white liquid looks amazing imho.

Yeah, I've already been there. This is what my Mayhems Opaque White coolant looks like after 3 weeks!

All brand new gear, flushed with distilled water only, no chemicals, vinegar, etc. Guess I'll stick with the clear tubing and clear fluid. Ah well, at least I get some practice on draining and cleaning my loop. Just didn't expect to be doing it this soon after my first build!
 
@sparkymark75 Jesus, that's terrible, that just looks dirty like it's standard water or something... so, what you going to go for then pure clear mate?I've just flushed my new system out as it had clear ironised water just for new build, ran it for 3 days solid so got any crap out. Then put EK Cryo Acid Green in last night but I don't like it, so, I've got 2 litres of EK Clear coming tomorrow. Something about the green that makes my build look cheap, so gonna go pure clear for me.

Yeah, got a bottle of XSPC EC6 Clear premix here which I'll use when I get time to strip it all down and clean it. The temps are still okay, looks like most of the sediment is in the GPU block. Thing is, I was hoping it would at least last until the next nVidia GPUs are released as I'll be getting one of those so will need to empty it all again then.

Yeah, I was going to wait until Big Navi, but couldn't resist so, thoguht get this finished and leave until next GPU upgrade and see what's what tbh. However, gonna deffo drain this green out, just not doing it for me, luckily I've got no crud in the system as I was only using ironised water then then EK acid green clear so, my cleaning and flushing will be a little easier than yours, you're gonna have to dismantle which is well annoying, I'd be furious if I was forced to because of poor fluid... that's mad

At least I got 3 weeks out of mine! There are guys in that thread I linked to above that got about 3 days out of theirs! I've raised a ticket with Mayhems, they're already aware of the issue. Gives me a chance to learn how to clean my blocks I guess and make a few wee changes to my loop (fit new temp sensor as current one is reading negative, and add a rotary fitting to the drain valve as its currently upside down!)
