It's actually a sweet and sour sauce bottle

You should have seen me browsing the entire grocery store looking for the 'perfect' bottle

BTW, thanks IRA-K, I look forward to reading your recommendations (didn't have time tonight).

It was exactly what I was looking for:

1. transparent
2. flat sides (for fittings)
3. tall and narrow (will not easily lose prime, like during transport)
4. relatively small capacity

Its doing the job well.

Default update to OP

I flushed my loop with the vinegar solution and rinsed 3 times with distilled. It looks much better, less murky. Then ordered PT nuke and blue Pentosin. A few more rinses and then I'll fill with the final mixture.

Thanks again for the advice!

Just one suggestion, pop a fan on that back mount, the cooling loop is great but the the mosfets and ferrites would probably appreciate the airflow when you mess with the voltages, the only problem with watercooling is that these no longer get any airflow from the heatsink/fan.

Something like a tricool on the lowest setting would be great and would'nt make much noise

Thanks.

The idea is that the air flow would come from the 4 fans above the rads (which are unseen in the pic). It seems to be working as my OC is running stable.
