Algae in GPU AIO

[Voyex]

I have the Alphacool Eiswolf 240 GPX Pro Radeon RX Vega M01 and I keep having to clean the pump because of algae buildup. Is there a way I can flush the system out so there would be no more algae? How would I refill it if possible, this is definitely affecting my performance.

Hi @Voyex ,

thist dosen't look like algae. I am quite sure this is copper oxide.
What liquid are you using?

I've cleaned it off with a toothbrush and rinsed it with eiswasser coolant.

You did the right thing.
Using acids, like some people suggest, will probably do more damage than it helps.

It builds up fast in about month or less is there any way to fix this or slow it down? When it happens my clock speeds go down and all I hear is water splashing.

Normally this should not happen at all if you use EIswater. If this happens again, please contact support directly: info@alphacool.com

Should I worry about this or is it fine?

That was a pure copper bottom, right? How old?

Clean it with a teethbrush. It won't look very nice visually, but it's not a big problem.
