Quick liquid Question

[JackyBoy]

Ive got 1 litre of feser 1 to put in one of my loops:

D5

PA120.3

CPU

NB

full cover GFX

bay res

and another litre to put in another loop:

d5

PA120.3

Maze4

SB

Mosfet

Mosfet

Bay res

will 1 litre per loop be enough or will i need more?

thanks, JackyBoy

Yea that will be fine mate, will probably use about 1 and a third plus a bit extra in the res's. If theyre big then it might be a little tight but should be ok

1ltr per loop should be fine

and if u run short just top it off with destilled

 

[Luigi]

But then its not non conductive...

 

[agentx]

that stuff doesnt stay non-conductive for very long as soon as it touches something that has a little dust or dirt it becomes conductive. so if it were to leak with just the feser stuff and his hardware is a little dusty it becomes conductive and wam! ur system if dead

I've seen evidence that suggests quite the opposite. I've seen someone use Feser 1 non-conductive fluid and have it leak on their graphics card for a prolonged period of time (multiple weeks) they only noticed when they started getting artifacts. So it can become conductive, but not at the rate you suggest.

 

[JackyBoy]

Awesome. well i will be putting it all together this tues so i shall know then!

ive got some distilled water too, so if i do need to i can just top it up with that you say? but it does say on the bottle not to mix with anything else, or is that just so you buy more like when head and shoulders shampoo says "always follow with HEAD AND SHOULDERS conditioner" one of those kind of suggestions?

thats great but did you ever stop to think that this wasnt long after he assembled the loop and dusted the pc before hand there fore prolonging the breakdown of the anti-conductive properties until an adiquite amount of dust could reacumulate?

as for ur question jackyboy it might be to make you buy more but it might not i wont tell you to or not to mix distilled as if anything does happen i dont want to be sued however i do believe that as long as you take time setting this loop up you shouldnt have to worry about leaks.

If i was you mate buy 3 lt just to be safe coz when i filled my pa 120.3 cpu/videocard loop i used 1 1/2 lt.

 

[agentx]

well if hes running 2 loops and it takes about 1 1/2 bottles to fill one he shud get about 4 bottles to fill his rite? (2 more bottles)

 

[clone38]

Will not do any harm coz if your like me i change my loop about every 4 moths to fit a new motherboard and stuff

 

[JackyBoy]

Awesome, well i took the safe option and just bought 2 more bottles just incase, it doesnt cost that much to save alot of hassle! cant wait to just get stuck in now and Fill 'Er Up!

must be nice lol i want ur job. and good luck with the build post some pics when u get her built and filled.
