Thermaltake Tai-Chi

[nathang]

Hey all i just bought myself a tai-chi case with built in water cooling (cop out i know) and i was wondering if anyone knows weather or not the thermaltake coolant was the same as regular car coolant? or if there is anything else that`s easily obtainable! The reason being that the company i got the gear from doesn`t stock the coolant on it`s own and doesn`t know when they`ll be getting any in either..
Any help is greatly appreciated

For all copper systems:
5% antifreeze (what you call "car coolant").
95% distilled water (not dionized, not anything else).
A few drops on non-alcoholic Iodine.

for mixed metals (i. e. copper and aluminum):
10% antifreeze .
90% distilled water.
A few drops on non-alcoholic Iodine.

No water wetter, no biocides, no soap, no oil, no dye, nothing else is required.

I have no idea what thermaltake sells, nor would I use anything other than what I posted.
