well these are my few last questions before i start setting up my wcing.

since im an ass / n00b, i ran my stuff with tap water for a short period. it left mineral deposits on my tubes, and im assuming in my rad and pump as well ( the wb wasnt used) is it ok to just leave it and run it with waterwetter, as ww will prolly prohibit any yuckies form living off the minerals. can i try washing it out with soapy water? what do you suggest that i do to get this crap out from inside my rad and pump?

thanks a lot

- look for my setup being done in the next few days :D

CLR... or white vinegar may work.

CLR would work, but try to run your system with distilled water and some sort of additive to prevent yuckies. Distilled water is cheap.

vinegar works pretty well... that's what I started in my actual watercooling solution...as a temporary method. However, results weren't half bad, and I haven't bothered to change it yet. :p
