Cleaning Used Thermochill PA120.3

sirheck and Clue69Less, stop trying to be too smart and nitpick everything... While I might believe you are knowledgeable in your respective areas, it's not always easy to translate into watercooling. Having a good theorical knowledge is a good thing but having a lot of pratical experience is better.

For example, about mixing metals, which both of you said it ok, can you give me ONE component made from aluminium which perform much better than the current accepted best ? This is precisely why the experienced users will always say NO to mixing metals because there is PLENTY of choices without ever using aluminium. Do you know the word KISS (not the common word but the acronym) ?

About the vinegar rinse, we don't care about the chemisty theory, only on actual effects. We all know leaving vinegar sitting for long will cause damage but it's also a potent cleaner to remove oxidization so with some care and following some rules, it's ok. That's what we are trying to explain here in the thread until both of you barge with your luggage of knowledge and a small purse of experience.

NaeKuh have a boatload of experience, toying with a lot of parts for a few years so if he say so or so, it's usually correct.

Well put Xilikon,
The end of the day its a hobby, a bit of fun and a bit of showing off. The day i take it too serous is the day i want to be payed for doing it.

Oh ya i'd go for the white vinegar too, but if your not happy with that there are products out there designed for loop cleaning, hey you pay ya money and take your chances

I was not nitpicking anything.
I was the one saying some here are being Too nitpicky.
I always said that you guys are correct that mixing metals isnt a good
idea, (once again) as i said over and over its not as bad as some make
it out to be.

My luggage of knowledge and SMALL PURSE of experience only goes back to
the late 80,s.

I have only messed with just a few thousand cooling systems.
Guess thats not enough for some.
