aspire, there is still a lot of foam in my loop ( u can see it when it is not on) Should I still leave my T line open? any suggestions with that? thanks! sry, I didnt realize you already provided a link Would this work ok? Petra's Tech Shop
I have the G11 additive in it. when I pour it in the bottle, it bubbles... I really think its the additive. >< didnt rinse stuff before assembly, just blew out the pump and cpu block with compressed air.
I pre mixed it. When I order those 90 degree barbs I will probably end up cleaning everything out. My temps have been getting better every day though... first day was 38c idle now im down to 36c. So boil some distilled water and pour it into the radiator? Maybe shake it around? Ill do that when I end up draining all this. Foam is getting less and less every day. Its more bubbly that foamy.... Ill try to take a good pic of it when my pc is off. When I got the kit I was expecting my temps to drop 10c (I know that wouldnt happen). What I like is that before when I would minimize a game, I would be at 50c; now im at 41c when I minimize, then within seconds I will drop down to 38c. that is what watercooling is supposed to do . thanks for all the help so far aspire
*UPDATE* Im not damaging my system by not cleaning it out... am I? Will I be ok for about 3-4 more months? Thanks again aspire
*UPDATE2* I keep adding a little more coolant, let my pc run then repeat. It slowly goes down to the bottom of the t line (my t line is very small lol) so I figure it is replacing the space of bubbles and such, so I think this is good. Ill keep doing this until it doesnt go down any more.
