Hi all,
I setup my first custom water loop last year May. Last weekend, I drained my system to install a vertical GPU mount in my case. When I pulled the card out, I was inspecting it for any problems and found some strange colored markings inside my GPU block. Since this is the first time seeing any problem in my loop, I just wanted to ask the community the best way to fix the problem. I think its corrosion or possibly the nickel plating is being flaked off? I wanted to show off the GPU, but I'm starting to have second thoughts because of this problem. What can I do?
All other parts didn't show any kind of corrosion or any other problem. I've been only using distilled water, no PT Nuke, or silver coil, etc. EKWB radiator, monoblock, fittings, bitspower
