Not oil, it's too thick so it will kill the pump. You simply need to mix some high percentage alcohol with water. Think of it as a chilled watercooling loop.

I fail to see the point... Everything is already silent, the temperatures are more than within control and this build is about to be mothballed anyway. I'm going to be going back to watercooling on my next build though cause if I don't, those 8950s or whatever cards I can get for roughly 350$ are gonna get noisy!

If you desire your temp's to be even lower and more silent (That day will come) you always have watercooling thumb.gif


I also would like to mention, I use alcohol in my loop all the time, 75/A 25/W and cools like a dream.

I will, eventually, but for now, I think it's stupid to spend at least 300$ for a CPU/GPU loop as well as getting a new case since my current one is useless for water. I mean, I won't buy a 100$ waterblock for a GPU that will be gone in roughly 6 months... But don't worry, when I go back to watercooling (I mean custom watercooling), you won't be disappointed! wink.gif

We actually have Russian candy with Vodka in them. Imagine, whenever your thirsty, you can always drink from your loop! Win/Win!
I call it as a backup, and when your Wife/Girlfriend throws every alcohol product in your house, you will be thankful about the loop thumb.gif
