How true is this??

Using anything other than water just does not makes sense for a "normal" water cooled system. The more you add to water you dilute the thermal properties. Anti freeze and water wetter liquids just are not needed. Water wetter is actually very acidic and can ruin many items not rated for it.

Water wetter is intended for the quarter mile racing systems that reach extreme temps and pressures.

thats complete bs. water wetter actually increases the thermal properties of water, and even if it didn't, it's worth putting some in to protect your blocks

oops.. did i say too much??

that is a dumb statement; you do need things to prevent corrosion and biological growths. and its not like you need TONS of additives to prevent those things from happening, so i doubt the water's heat transfer rate will be significantly affected.

I knew that comment was from och as soon as I read it, but whether it comes from them or not, thats complete bs
