Hi Guys!
In the last year I started to build a custom water loop for my PC. (This is my first time)
Here is my system specs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GlFxIpayBNK8FPOGMhgZaHsocx2I0AAjlsQVO9qrDzc/edit?usp=sharing
Current only these are connected: (I will do the GPU water cooling in the next few weeks)
CPU block : Alphacool Eisblock XPX Aurora PRO - Acryl Black Digital RGB
Liquid for cooling : Alphacool Apex Liquid ECO 1000ml clear
Liquid for cleaning : Alphacool Core Loop Cleaning 100ml
Radiator : Alphacool NexXxoS HPE-30 Full Copper 420mm Radiator
And it's about 10 months old. I started to notice some 'spider web'-like stuff in my system. I flushed the system with 'Alphacool Core Loop Cleaning 100ml' for about 30 minutes, then with distilled water for a few hours. The 'spider web'-like stuff is still there. Also, I noticed that the water is brown. (I think this is caused by the copper oxidation.)
My question is, what is that stuff? I think I will disassemble the CPU block and then clean it, but what is it?
Here are some pictures:
