Hey guys, I just installed my new watercooling setup. First of all I wasnt sure if my heatercore could be mounted upside down, can it? Its a 2Fresh dual heatercore. Also my other question was should I drain it again because I mixed it 60% distilled water with 30% half water half antifreeze. It never occured to me that that half water was just that water, not distilled And the last question is are my temps right? Im using the computer in my sig. They Idle at 49 and under load they get to 58 c. This seems way off but I think its my motherboard. The case themps ar in the low 40s.

It doesn't matter how you mount your radiator. Mounting with the barbs at the top is best because it bleeds itself pretty well. If you've got it mounted with the barbs down, you probably have to turn your computer upside down to get the air out.

You probably should replace all your fluids with a fresh load of distilled water and antifreeze mixed at 1:10 to 1:20.

We'll the 1:10 ratio is with pure anti-freeze but I mixed it with 50/50 so I would have to add twice as much. Get it?

Yeah then it would just be 1:5. The pure antifreeze is a better deal than the pre-mixed stuff FYI.
