EK introduces EK-CryoFuel Solid coolants

EK® Water Blocks, is proud to announce the launch of a brand new line of EK-CryoFuel coolants! EK-CryoFuel Solid non-transparent coolants are all based on a new patent-pending formula with vivid, long-lasting color stability.

EK CryoFuel Solid
The coolant contains everything a high-end liquid cooling system requires for efficient thermal performance and providing the necessary protection for your water blocks. It carries the essential synergistic corrosion inhibitors and biological inhibitors - thus promoting long and safe operational life for your liquid cooling products and high thermal efficiency.

EK-CryoFuel Solid also contains synergistic corrosion inhibitors to protect metals commonly found in computer liquid cooling systems. It has been tested in accordance with BS5117 (ASTM D1384) and found to meet corrosion standards for copper, brass, and stainless steel. This coolant also contains biocides to help prevent unwanted biological growth inside your cooling loop.
All EK-CryoFuel Solid mixtures are biodegradable (90% in a period of 10 days) and will not remain in the environment or cause any bioaccumulation. EK-CryoFuel Solid offers a 1-year shelf life from date of bottling, the production date can be seen on the packing bottle of the coolant.
The EK-CryoFuel Solid coolants are not compatible with aluminum-based liquid cooling loops and EK advises that they are not used with any of the EK Fluid Gaming lineup of products.

For the more information, please refer to our Official Press Release.

"solid" referring to the colour not the state of the matter, it's still liquid. I thought this was some new cooling tech XD

while it's an interesting look for my personal taste it kind of defeats the point as it looks now like painted plastic tubes I'm more the transluscent fluo green so it looks like it's radioactive (80's B-movies style lol)
it will sure look great in mono-color focused cases like an all white build

meh it's just a different style of coolant, eyeballing the white because i have a couple LED strips in my case so the white would become any color i set the LED's to.

but once the air in bled a clear coolant loop will look like a solid tube of glass.
only something like primochill vue will still look like somethings inside of the tube (and even there it can be hard to tell if your flow rate is high, though i have a tinted sidepanel so perhaps that made it harder to see).

now to let people test it for a year or 2 to see if it's worth getting.

was a early adapter of primochill vue and 4-5 month's after putting it in it started to seperate and clog up my cpu block so i'd rather not have that again :p
replaced it before the liquid fully started to seperate, putting it back in the bottle i have a ~1 to .5mm of seperated liquid at the top of the bottle (which was enough to cut my flowrate from 1.25L/M to 0.6 with the amount of stuff that was collecting in the cpu block.

Solid coolant... That's even more stupid than americas name for petrol, the word they are looking for is "opaque".

I dodged the Vue bullet because I had just changed my fluid and didn't want to waste the money I just spent on EK Yellow. :P

After all of the issues people have had with Thremaltake and Primochill opaques recently, I am also a bit wary about these. At least if you have an all-EK setup, they can't balk on warranty replacement if they separate and clog, so that's something.

I am still probably going to go clear on the refresh I am going to build next year, using the frosted soft tubing from Alphacool and relying on light strips and fans for color. I was going to do distilled water, but it looks like PT Nuke is a somewhat risky proposition at this point, with people getting bottles that are years old when they order it, and the formula having issues with the nickel plating in some blocks.
