I think any GPU block is compatible as long as you use same size fitting from your kit.

Anybody experience plasticizer using Pimochill Advance LRT? I am using this tubing and the coolant is distilled water plus mayhem biocide. tired oredi clean the tubing because of this problem.

I'm using it almost a month, 1st 2 weeks using only distilled water without any additive, currently using EK coolant, so far still very clear

You mix ek coolant with distilled water? hmm.gif
Because even i wash the tubing, after a while the plastictizer will come back. might wanna grab ek coolant.

Nope, just EK coolant purely. How long the tubing has been used? Maybe mine still new so haven't come to that yet

Personal favourites are noctua and prolimatch stuff. Still waiting for gelid extreme.

Don't have to change the pads unless they're damaged.
1/2 3/4 only got xspc high flex. Which is pretty good if you like soft tubing.
*
The gelid extreme is it the one come together with EK Supremacy waterblock? Its performance better than Noctua NT-H1? Currently i'm using Noctua for both CPU & GPU, if gelid extreme better then i will use it for next when i dismantle the setup.

Not anymore unfortunately. EK now include EK Ectotherm TIM with their water block. Using this new TIM on my 290's waterblock. I don't impress with their performance though. I'm going back to Shin-Etsu G751.

Gelid GC-Extreme should be good but I've never use it myself.
*
I bought the CPU block 1week+ ago, still came with Gelid Extreme
But 290X waterblock bundled with EK Ectotherm

So i need to get myself biocide? What if i didnt? Just go with distilled water, without adding anything? @@ will there be algae growing?

If really require to get biocide, then ima grab a bottle tomorrow
*
Why not just get a bottle of coolant? Its already premixed with biocide & anti-corrosion additive, no need headache & not expensive too, around RM3X.

New blocks now come with Ectotherm TIM. I don't think my blocks are regular though.  vmad.gif LOL  biggrin.gif

http://www.ekwb.com/news/351/19/EK-FC-seri...h-enclosed-TIM/
Shin-Etsu G751 is pretty good. Better than famous TIM out there. I've tested few TIMs & this came out on top.

That was only applied to GPU block, cpu block they still giving gelid extreme

but one bottle wont be able to fill up a loop right? so probably need more than one.....

If your loop not so complicated and your res not those giant size then 1 bottle (1 little) should enough. Im also using 1 bottle only

I bought white tube , so might as well as just use distilled water.
If i didn't use biocide for now , then 1 week later then i add into my loop , will that be ok?
*
I'm not sure how it will goes eventually, but as i told u before i only use purely distilled water which i bought from 7-11 for about 2 weeks, i inspect the setup before i put in EK coolant nothing abnormal.

For all the water cooling sifus here:

Would a 240mm radiator be enough to handle a 290X and a 4GHz i7 3770K?
*
My experience, as what sentinel said, get at least a 360mm rad

For that price range I might as well get a UN Designs Metal Pump Mount. Haha.

But I'm thinking of getting something cheap and simple like this. EK UNI Holder 50/70 Liquid Cooling Mount Adapter
