So I followed the advice offered and got rid of most of the hazing/clouding inside the block after a few flushing with distilled water. Much oblige!

So I can't comment on the old setup anymore because I have decided that having two loops is a pain and I am literally limiting my thermal headroom for each heat source. So I tore the two loops apart, replacing the two DDC pumps with Dual D5, added a temp sensor and made it into one single loop. Now running Firestrike sits both the GPU and CPU @45C max. The temperature in the combined test is in the high 30s for both, coolant temp is around 32~35.
This was the same test as I was reported before, only the temp has changed pretty drastically
It seems that the 2080ti is just that hot, I'm only running a mild OC @ +165/+1000 Core/Mem. Also, the TIM was probably in cure time, which causes it previous temp
Even so, not everyone lives happily ever after yet, another problem pops up
The area around the screws that goes into the acrylic seems to have something gather around. It couldn't be from the loop because the screw is outside the gasket. It looks like microcrack to me, but the pattern is really weird, and it shouldn't have happened so early like this. :!oops::!oops::!oops:
I don't know if I should have gone for the XSPC or the heatkiller block. They look really bulletproof, especially the XSPC one. I really like the XG7's aesthetic and the ease of installation though
Here's what my setup looks like in case anyone wondering, I changed to the XL Red for the photo above, still have some left in reserve. Probably will get a Blue to see if I can make a Purple color. I mean, I thought that Corsair launched a set of 5 color coolants, but the purple literally OOS everywhere I looked. And some guy on Reddit even comment that other colors are also coming soon (*TM) :eek::eek::eek:
