Tweety, What kind of temperatures do you get where you live? and what ratio of Water:coolant:Water Wetter do you use? Could you also give me temperatures on an average day? Take outside temps, room temps and report on CPU temps? would be very helpful.

Also, what kind of tubing did you actually use and is it widely available? I was thinking that Tygon Tubing should suffice since I assumed that being Laboratory Grade, it would have to survive some laboratory chemicals involving some weak acids.

I think I'll run passive at first and worry about passive later. It will be easy enough to turn the stuff off, rig up a surround before anything gets dangerously hot or am I misinformed here?

EDIT: How does Anti-Freeze affect parts like the pump or water blocks? Does it damage these in any way?
