So i have been reading up and looking at EKWB for water blocks, and noticed the issues (as stated by EKWB) that a silver killcoil and nickel don't jive well. Yet I see many people not having an issue using a killcoil with nickel.
My question is two-fold:
1.) Does using a killcoil interfere with current EKWB nickel blocks?
2.) I havent seen any discussions on this, but as a backup, if i went with solid copper for my WB, that would not interfere with silver, correct? It's safe to use them together?
Also, assuming using distilled water only, how often should you replace the liquid inside the loop? would waiting two years before flushing the system damage it?
I would use pt nuke, but there have been reports of it clouding petg tubing, and id rather not deal with that.
I havent bought the parts yet for my new PC, and this will be my first CWC build, so any advice is greatly appreciated.
