I’m eager for your thoughts, as this marks my initial watercooling adventure!
After finishing my bachelor’s in Computer Science, my family supported me in trying water cooling. This wasn’t just a first experience—it was the opportunity to assemble a PC with two separate water-cooling systems. The result was impressive, especially considering the quality of the Primochill VUE liquid that flowed freely. I captured most of the process so I could create a video for potential employers or to share with others.
Gratitude goes to everyone who helped build it and to my family for allowing this project.

I hope this helps, as this is my first time getting involved in water cooling! After finishing my bachelor's degree in Computer Science, my family supported me in trying out water cooling systems. This was not only my first experience with water cooling, but I also managed to assemble a PC equipped with two separate water-cooling loops. The build turned out very well, partly because of the impressive Primochill VUE liquid that flowed nicely around the components. I captured most of the process so I could create a video for potential future employers or just share it online. I’m grateful to everyone who helped build this system and to my family for giving me this opportunity.

I’m not a fan of colored liquids since they fade over time and can leave residue in the system. Also, I wasn’t mixing metals properly—though that’s not my intention. Just a quick question!
EK sticks to copper, nickel, and brass in their main hardware components and has only recently started using aluminum in their budget cooling solutions, though they claim it's all-aluminum to avoid corrosion—provided you don’t mix anything yourself. I also tend to avoid colored coolants; adding anything to regular distilled water acts as an insulator, reducing the cooling effect. Also observed on the PCPartPicker page... $900+ for the motherboard? Unclear why that was necessary since the funds could have been better spent elsewhere, unless there was a mistake.
