According to the web site:

Pre-Mixed and Ready to add you your system. Just add your choice of color.
You just add the *optional* dye color you selected to the mix.

I so hope your not thinking about this crap for the "non-conductive" attribute.

Okay now you just confused me,

What exactly do I need to use, I dont want dye.
So you saying this stuff is crap?

I was just thinking of adding this stuff to the system loop

Use the stuff NaeKuh linked to. It's distilled water and is as "non-conductive" as the PC ICE, without the nasty price tag.

I got 2 bottles of UV Red PC Ice when it first came out and had a leak with a brand new build because a plastic barb let loose from the CPU block. The link I posted was the carnage that ensued while I was slepping.

in a sense, you should just use distilled water unless you wanted that dye. :\

Well, that was his original assertion. I recently met up with him and we got on the subject again and he was a little more forth coming. Seems she was nagging him about charging too much to which he shot back that she drank too much. :p::D

Then why don't you speak to the fluid he linked to instead of the PC ICE you're talking about, because what he's thinking of using is NOT PC ICE.

Pure is as thin or thinner than water, has fewer additives than PC ICE...essentially water with biocide, lube for pump bearing. As far as money, it's his to spend...... :)

Unless you use 3M Fluorinert, it's all overpriced snake oil, just snake oil by a different name. PC Ice or PC Pure, no difference at all in the end, they all have the same non-conductive properties as distilled water
