Question What's In Your Loop?

Please select from the options that most closely match your preferred coolant(s). If it is not listed please post what you are using. Temps (idle/load) , OC info and the reason you chose your particular coolant would be ideal.

The purpose of this poll is to complile some statistical data regarding preferred coolant for "water-cooling" a PC. Obviously we all have opinions on this--but this is not an opinion poll.

Thanks for participating!

Distilled by Arrowhead and HydrX by ST as it was cheap at $1.99x3, but I plan on running Cosworth Racing Coolant w/some bright UV dye for leak detection when my system is finally installed.

I'm with you on Idle?, and temps don't currently apply as I still have to get my Winnie naked as well as lapp the GPU/Northbridge chipsets and blocks first.
