iightfyre Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Hi again Corsair Peeps! So, before I mount and install everything - should I flush the Corsair rads and water blocks? Corsair manual says no, internet videos say yes. Any advice? Thanks in advance as always!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infin1tum Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 always flush your blocks and rads before installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iightfyre Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Thanks! I saw a vid by ekwb says hot water and vinegar then flush with just distilled after that. Is that the best way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeDoyen Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 rads that are sold as "clean, no flushing needed" won't give you big weld flux or copper bits in the loop, but you'll always find small dust and particulates with time. So you may flush them if you like but they shouldn't be any big deal. doesn't hurt to rinse them anyway :) it takes a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
