If it's on the outside of the tubing, I would say it looks like dust. Before I installed a fan filter, dust liked to cling to my tubing...

sounds like you had quite a mixture going.
Try 95% water 5% water wetter. Add uv dye if you want a non-bacteria colered water (pink).
Empty... clean using Airspirit's cooling mixture and refill. It will take that gunk out immediately.

Have you actualy mixed WWetter in your current mixture (distilled water+coolant)? It sounds like you did.
Also, have you ever changed your mixture? |

After a while your mixture becomes a haven for organic goodness. Try flushing the system and using some lysol or something. Then buy some new distilled water and start over. I guarantee the mixture can lower your temps a bit as well.

Yeah, you should change your mix every 6 months or less. Do it and you'll be even happier with your setup.

i occasionally browse the procooling forums, but reading this finally made me join so i could respond:)
read this thread for why you SHOULD NOT USE WATER WETTER in your water cooling systems. i can't verify that this is the problem here, but in general, water wetter should be avoided as a water additive in watercooling systems |
