Well I know that alchohol freezes at a much lower temp than water and they use it in auto application to lower the freezing temps of water and kill any algae that may grow in the system.
__________________So could I use it in the water cooling setup? Yeah a bit expensive but lets just say, hypothetically of course, I have a half gallon of vodka left over from a party that I wont drink. whatdya think?

Vodka?
I think it can be done. The freezing temperature doesn't really make a difference because you're not gonna be under ambient temps unless you live outdoors in Antarctica. Give it a try just make sure it's completely distilled and you haven't contaminated it at all.

surely a liquids freezing temp would have no effect on its cooling ability (in the case of Vodka anyway)

I don't think alcohol absorbs heat as well as water though.
