post #1011 of 2566
*Update*

I tore down my loop this weekend. I didn't have any crazy leeching, just light clouding which can be rubbed off with my finger.
450

Slight mess in my res but I was able to rub it out.
700

My pump was clean, EK Supreme HF was clean, scrubbed it anyways,

gpu block..um, I didn't bother cleaning it as I'm afraid the o-ring will be a pain to put back on like my EK spin.
450

Their GPU block O-rings are actually very easy to put back, atleast on the 6870 block. It was easier then on the Supreme HF when i tried opening mine.

So, I've gone through a few pages here only to read countless speculations.....has anyone actually found something that works or come to a census as to whats happening here? What products are to be avoided or never mixed?

A bunch of us are trying Durelene now as a few have shown some very promising results with it. I'm waiting for mine to show up and I will be replacing my tubing and reporting here to keep everyone updated on how it holds up.

That tubing is "clouded" already at purchase, so if you wan't clear tubing that is definitely something you should avoid.

I thought it was advertised/test verified to be a non-clear tubing?
Another thread confirmed it as a plasticizer free tubing, the only drawback being that it only comes in translucent/opaque.

Err, the Tygon 2001 that is, over $4/ft tubing if IIRC.
