Maybe make an updated video showing the proper use of your new loop flushing/cleaning products?
I've found some crest 3d white toothpaste, a toothbrush, and some distilled water works incredibly well. It took me 2 minutes to clean vs an hour of scrubbing with dish soap.
Thanks for sharing!
Yeah that stuff is magic! Highly recommend!
I like EK
Great introduction Matic, pretty funny actually and very informative video 😂👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for this video its helped me soooo many times! My next build I'll be looking at EK blocks just because of how concise this video is!
This may sound absurd to you guys but I’ve found denture cleaning tablets can be used to clean and disinfect LOTS of things and it may work in this situation as well (I only wonder about the metal parts). I had to clean a water flossing machine and all of its parts and they came out shining like new after a few denture tablets and an overnight soak.
we need a distro plate for the o11 air mini :D great video! thank you
How often should you open your water blocks and clean them? What are the signs of algae growth?
How often do you recommend disassembling a loop and cleaning up?
depends on what fluids you run and the heat of your loop
For EK-Cryofuel Clear we recommend once every 12 months, solid coolants may require a change sooner
Great video. How do I clean my Ekwb EK-Quantum Flow Indicator?
what you use for cleaning if you have close waterblock exp Mining waterblock thanks
I love your name mytits!
@EKWBofficial where are the torque requirements located for your blocks? Specifically the EK-Vector Radeon RX 5700 +XT RGB - Nickel + Plexi. Thanks.
My EK waterblock is brand new and leaks past the gasket at the EK loop cleaning stage. I'm going to have to break the seal to clean it, what happens when I do?
How durable are the orings after theirs oils are washed away ? Does EK sell spare orings for gpu blocks ?
The o-rings are durable, but if you ever need a replacement just contact our customer support team and they will help you obtain a new one: customerservice.ekwb.com/
@@EKWBofficial would using a silicone food-safe lube on the gaskets be ok to help condition and prevent leaks after cleaning?
are you still working on a cleaning solution for radiators ek ?
I’m having trouble with cleaning nickel plated block for my ek active backplate 4090. The stain is not coming off.
maybe a dumb question. But changing loop fluid once a year. But then when should you clean the blocks? Same? Or once every 2 years?
You should clean the blocks when something is blocking the fins, there's any growth in them, or you simply want to change the color of your coolant.
Matiz in another video (how to prepare ur loop) u said not to use distillate water never and now u suggest to clean up and rinse wth distillate water. Make sense?
Got 8 year old EK blocks for both my old 980Ti and 6700k. They almost look brand new. From one you got the quality of EK and from other a psychopath who cleans his blocks every year with replacing the coolant.
This is why i submerge my blocks into a biocide, distilled water mix for 2 hours after every 4 months. Nothing grows on it, any form of rusting is immensely delayed and it extends the life of the block.
I used to use my ex wife's toothbrush to clean my waterblocks, I regularly used vinegar in some cases lemon juice. It worked a treat however she always hated the taste afterwards when she was brushing her teeth.
Türkiye den selam çok komiksin , böyle devam et !
how often do you recommend doing this?
We strongly advise you replace your coolant at least every 12 months :)
what about steam cleaning?
Considering it's one of your products it's pretty sad you didn't include aluminum blocks as well
You can clean them the same way you clean your copper blocks :)
How do you remove a led strip that is covering screws?
Contact our customer support and they will lead you through a process for every individual block :) customerservice.ekwb.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
No do rads! Ones that have had stuff growing in them!
If you did proper loop prep and ran a good fluid, you shouldn’t ever need to clean a water block. The only time I have had to clean a block was due to my own mistakes while I was learning the hobby. I haven’t had to clean a block in 6 years.
Any recommendations? I have corrosion now for a completely new build. It’s been two months. Lol
