Thermaltake CL-W0044 Bigwater UV Sensitive Coolant

Pros: Uv reactive, does its job, non-conductive. Leaked on my mobo, no big deal. Great for cooling and oc'ing

Cons: taste good.

Overall Review: don't drink

Pros: Umm, pro? Its exactly what it says it is? Its coolant, you can't mess that up.

Cons: Only cons are the people that make up elaborate stories about things to make the product seem bad when it was their own fault they didnt read the directions.

Overall Review: If you are low on coolant, FLUSH your system and fill it up with this, don't mix old with new or brand for brand, wonderful thing chemicals, you mix the wrong two together and bad things happen, like jelly, so just don't do it.

Pros: I'm not sure what other people are doing, but in a Thermaltake system I've never had buildup, "white blobs", loss of UV reaction, algae, nothing. I think that people might be using it mixed with water or replacing another brand without a full flush. I have always used this coolant 100% in my system, never a single issue besides the con below.

Cons: If your system doesn't have a VERY tight seal on the resevoir, it has a tendancy to evaporate a bit fast.

Overall Review: Except for needing to top off the resevoir every few months, this stuff does the job well. I recommend only using it at 100% and not mixing with water. That's what works for me.

Pros: It's just a coolant, there isn't much to praise about it. It does its job without a problem, and so far has worked great for me. It gets a very slight glow from my Blue strobe lights.

Cons: It doesn't come with a syringe or some sort of accessorry to pour it into tight orifices.

Overall Review: Used it with a thermaltake TideWater Plus without a problem. The hard part was getting it in, as the fill hole is not even quarter inch in diameter.

Pros: It glows very well in UV light

Cons: Its WAYYY too expensive for the amount they give you. I have a XSPC ressi/water pump in one and this bottle will only fill up that...nothing else. If I could do it over again I would never of bought this.

Pros: Had some of this come in my original Thermaltake kit and been using it ever since. Never had to clean/flush my system nor have I had any sludge buildup.

Cons: This stuff will evaporate over time, which is why I had to buy more. It runs through about one container per year so be sure to check it about once a month.

Overall Review: My entire system is thermaltake; pump, tubes, reservoir, water blocks, the works. Most of the complaints don't make any sense. This stuff doesn't fizz or corrode your pipes unless you're doing something seriously wrong.

Pros: This product does its job great and is perfect at it!

Cons: None

Overall Review: While it does do its job perfect, there is a much better and cheaper alternitive. I use car coolant, distilled water, and rubbing alcohol. In a 1:1:3 ratio in the same order. This does a superb job cooling.

Pros: Hmm. Looks cool. Good thermal properties. Not enough to offset the cons.

Cons: This stuff is CONDUCTIVE! Quite conductive actually. A very small amount leaked out of the CPU block and onto video card #1. Poof! Dead video card. (And yes, the entire system was hooked up out of case & tested for two hours leak free prior to being installed!) So, no more Thermaltake coolant for me. I ordered Fluid XP+ to replace it. Fortuantely only 1 video card got killed, but it could have been far worse. If you're going to go the water cooling route, spend the extra $$$ to get a non-conductive coolant fluid.

Overall Review: Newegg is a great place for 99% of computer stuff, but really doesn't touch water cooling like I think they should. As far as I can tell, there's no non-conductive coolant offered here at all. I also wonder why anyone would make a water cooling kit & NOT use non-conductive coolant...
