How to Start Watercooling your PC Part 2

Building your PC -Hardware preparation You may have spent many hours planning your entire build, but that does not mean you should skip one of the most parts in building a custom loop; preparing your hardware. By preparing your hardware I mean making sure all of your system hardware works, cleaning your radiators, and cleaning your new loop. Most builders suggest that you first build your system out of the case, typically on the motherboard box, similar to a test bench. Once you know that your system will POST, you can clean the hardware and install the blocks onto it.

Block installation will be covered more thoroughly later. You will also want to clean your radiators before you install them in your case. One of the easiest and most recommended methods is by using the Mayhems Blitz kit’s Part 1 cleaning solution. This solution contains Phosphoric Acid, which is a strong acid that will clean most any radiator completely. An alternative radiator cleaning solution to use is distilled white vinegar. You will want to fill your radiators with vinegar then let them sit for 6-12 hours and soak. After, you can flush them with tap water and rinse thoroughly with distilled water. To use the Mayhems Blitz kit, follow the instructions provided in the kit.
