I have an Coolermaster Nepton 120XL which I expanded it with additional 240mm radiator and EK GPU full-cover waterblock after the AIO pump died. I got recently concerned when I was throwing out the 240mm rad box and I noticed it said it was aluminum, and I heard about corrosion in the past when mixed with copper. I did a bit of Googling but can't find the answers I'm looking for so here it goes;
1. The Coolermaster Nepton 120xl uses a aluminum radiator (thats what it says on their page) and copper CPU block, they're already mixing so will I make more damage by adding additional aluminum rad and additional GPU cooper block?
2. I'm running 75% anti-freeze and 25% distilled water water in my system, will it slow down the corrosion? Or should I be better off using a anti-corrosion additive?
3. How often should I switch out the luquid? And should I flush the system with distilled water aswell when switching out the luqid?
4. I heard that avoding the aluminum radiator contacting with the case can prevent the corrosion? If I use rubber screws for the rads, will it actually help?
Thanks for reading
