What is the best antifreeze to use in the cold loop? Was thinking gycerol in a 60/40 mix. And for insulation neoprene and dielectric grease?

I use 50% Mayhems X1 glycol for my hot loop and a 10% mix for the cold loop. Works great!

Umm, yeah that's not the most obvious. I cool my TEC chiller with a custom window unit and I live far up north. -25c is a daily occurance here, -40c is rare. So when browsing the net or watching a movie I didn't want the water in the hot loop to freeze over...

ROG-BOX in my sig. I have two of them, one for winter the other for summer.
My chiller isn't fully functional yet so I can't give you temps (3 aren't working due to power issues). Folding full out with 1360w out of the wall I get 15 to 17c water with 5 units (aiming at 10c with all chillers working).

How many chillers are you running in a chain?
