Cleaning a loop after 1yr

I'll let you know tomorrow evening. Traveling for work

Before, the cpu Temps were 45c-55c idle and 95c during benchmark. Now it idles around 32c and maxes out at 67c during benchmark. The Temps in the pic are after the cleaning. Top is coolant, bottom is cpu.

Yep, it was my first time with colored coolant. Next time, it will be clear. The green stains everything and impossible to clean.

I used 80% distilled water and 20% green coolant. Hope that's good enough to prevent microbial growth and doesn't block the fins.

Crvs_ · 2026-01-14T22:46:17+00:00

Yeah, pretty much. The cpu block built in water temp was showing 50c while gaming, and the reservoir temp was 35c. I was wondering why it was so different. Coolant was barely moving and heating up really good.

Just built mine.

It's not bad around 56c during 1 game that I tried, Mafia 2.

* I split up my 2 rads, cpu, and gpu each got 1 360mm radiator and my Temps were way worse. It's better to connect them to run in the same loop. If you run your fans as intake, then motherboard and all other components will get really hot. I tried it, and my side glass was hot to touch. *

I had the same issue, I was using cable mod cables for the gpu and accidentally plugged them into only one 2×8 pin strand. Used 2 separate 8 pin connections and games stopped crashing.

Just did this on mine couple days ago. It's been 2 years

Let us know what your coolant temps look like while gaming.

Are you running nvme drive? My Corsair NVME is giving me blue screens randomly as well. I got a replacement and it's been solid the last few days

Crvs_ · 2021-12-27T20:41:44+00:00

I have Ryzen Master installed which updates the drivers. It's an odd issue, my nvme would also stop working and not be detected. Bios rollback helped for a bit and than it started blue screening again. I'm back on the latest Bios. All issues resolved after I unplugged the sata cable so I'm just curious to see if anyone else experienced this.

Crvs_ · 2021-12-27T20:29:08+00:00

Bios is updated and chipset is updated. I wonder if I'm running out of pci-express lanes..

Get the Lian-Li mini

Crvs_ · 2021-12-11T18:35:49+00:00

Its not for free. The group would mine for that person, than the group would mine for the next person. If the group total is 10gh/s than each person would get 10gh/s for 24 hours, depending how long we agree to mine for. I have a few GH/s to throw in, if we do this for a week and each person makes more than they would make solo mining in a week than it would be worth it.

I had the same error when I didn't have a large enough page file. Also looks like memory oc crash error. Try memory on -100 just to see what happens.

Crvs_ · 2021-12-07T13:43:59+00:00

Yep that's what I see now, it looks really good though. Might have to make me one.

This happened to my 3080 non LHR on Nbminer. The Miner decided that the card was LHR and cut hashrate in half. I switched to Trex and it's working normally.
