Nanofluid tested with three different temperatures on a Q6600

[railmeat]

****im not bashing please understand as im ALWAYS looking for something better for my water setup and price does not matter.but what does this stuff bring to the table for watercooling guys?***

Performance: "Clear advantage" is meant literally. It is clearly measurable that there is an advantage. I'm observing this, not passing judgement. You see a lot of people choosing one waterblock over another because of performance, yet the blocks are mostly very, very close in performance. Also, many people optimize their loops for higher flowrates even though more flow will net you only fractions of degrees in better temperatures after a certain point. In this context, I can imagine that 0.7° is an advantage worth having for some people. Ultimately, that's up to each individual to decide.

Residue: The current sample is a new one and I'm doing a long term test. So just sit back and wait. We'll see if the residue problem is still present. I'm not saying it isn't, I'm just saying we don't know yet.

Why would anyone use it? In my experience, because it looks awesome. I've gotten dozens of e-Mails and PM's since I published the first review, asking about the Nanofluid. Of everyone who wrote, I think no one cared about the performance. They all just wanted cool looking white stuff in their loop.
This is also what I personally like about the NF most (as I stated in the original review).

"We'll see if the residue problem is still present. I'm not saying it isn't, I'm just saying we don't know yet."

whatever cooler the fluid is,whatever manf,i tired them ALL!!.tygon 3603 is pourus aka asorbs whatever color the fluid is AFTER it dries inside the tubing.after many frustrating attempts for "cool colors" which i love very much! i had to be realistic and accept this fact: cool colors equal stainined tubes or just clear water for clear tubing.after talking ON THE PHONE to one of the engys at tygon he schooled me on staining.the man himself said "stick with a CLEAR processed water for 0 staining".i thanked him for his time and live by that rule from now on.



Adsorption, the binding of molecules or particles to a surface, must be distinguished from absorption, the FILLING OF PORES in a solid. The binding to the surface is usually weak and reversible. Just about anything including the FLUID that dissolves or suspends the material of interest is bound, but compounds with COLOR and those that have taste or odor tend to BIND strongly. Compounds that contain chromogenic groups (atomic arrangements that vibrate at frequencies in the visible spectrum) very often are strongly adsorbed on activated carbon. Decolorization by STEAMING(lol,unrealistic)can be wonderfully efficient by adsorption and with negligible loss of other materials.







somebody wanna invent something?make a NON-pouros or 0.001 pourus tubing....will sell like hotcakes




"Why would anyone use it? In my experience, because it looks awesome."

i agree %100,it looks killer (til it dries up and stains tubing)


"I think no one cared about the performance."

umm the charts above are trying to prove diff?lol
