EK Water Blocks recommends the following steps be taken in order to prevent any biological growth within the warm waters of your computer liquid cooling loop:
The photo above shows the nickel-plated copper base of a poorly-maintained water cooling product.
Brown biological growth is clearly visible, as well as traces of plasticizer caused ‘gunk’ (source: overclock.net)
‘Kill Coil’ failed to protect the system: Photo above shows brown organic growth inside a reservoir (source: overclock.net).
To sum it up: EK Water Blocks strongly advises against using any solution other than the market proven and tested pre-mix coolant. Using cheaper alternatives such as strips of Silver, Copper (II) Sulphate or some other homebrew solution with your expensive water cooling gear is just not even worth considering.
