I got the books in hand now...
I find two liquids interesting
1. Methanol (CH3OH), 0,30 (10^-3Ns/m^2), 0,023 (N/m), 2,50 (kJ/(kg*K))
2. Dietyleter (C2H5)2O, 0,23 (10^-3Ns/m^2), 0,017 (N/m), 2,30 (kJ/(kg*K))
As reference:
Water, 1,00 (10^-3Ns/m^2), 0,073 (N/m), 4,18 (kJ/(kg*K))

The thing is that most of your pump losses happen in the channels towards the cooling block
