Hi there,
Browsing through my pics, I found the old horror stories from the Zalman ZM-WB4 waterblock.
For those that don't know, it's a block made out of a copper base+anodized alu top.
There are lots of threads saying you shouldn't mix both, but I have yet to see an horror story like this one.
Pictures talk by themselves.



This is the top once cleaned of all the debris/salts/oxide/jizz:

Self-explanatory right?
Since I currently use that block on my GPU, I'm currently building an acrylic top. Well, I just need to stick the halves and test it out
So, one more time: Don't mix alu+copper in your loops fellas. Even less if you run tap water (I run distilled).
