    You can not switch between means of payment on your own. System does not allow this.

    Also, disregard my reservoir comment. I was reading (wrongly) that your reservoir is 60mm tall, while it was 60mm in diameter, need better glasses.

            Sorry, I can influence what is happening with payment processor (external service), you have to make new order and I will cancel this pending order.

            I plan re-order Kollance thsi week, so 10 days or so.

              K got another question about radiators.
              Do i need to flush them?? If so, is there some efficient way?
              Also where do you buy 5-10L distilled water jugs to do so?

                I usually do...it's not a deal breaker, but it's worth spending a few minutes to do so. I don't know about different methods, but I just pour some in (use a funnel if need be), and shake it around for a bit then drain it out....usually repeat it and I'm done.

                I just grab the big jugs of distilled water from Shopper's Drug Mart. 4 litres for under 2 bucks.

                  Grocery store for water. Wall Mart would most likely have as well. Daz recommends the water from Loblaw's I think

                  First I shake my rads well to get any loose solder out.
                  Then I run water through them from a tap and hose so it flows down drain.

                  Then flush twice with Distilled water.
                  I use 4L jugs 1/flush and don't save that water cause it's cheap.
                  Setup using the pump I plan on using for the build. Trick here is to prime your pump and feeder hose.
                  First flush with distilled I go from a full jug to an empty pale. Cause I like to see if anything was still coming out after tap flush.
                  Second flush I cycle back into the bottle using it as a res. and run for 20min to make sure the rad is well cleaned.

                  Some may think I'm a little overboard others may do more.

                    I go a little further by boiling the distilled water. Make sure you have some towels handy because the rad will get hot. I've only bought XSPC rads and they have been very clean. For distilled water, every grocery store would carry the 4L jugs.

                        I follow Hoody's method. hot tap water first, then a couple litres per rad of distilled to flush.
                        then set up a temp loop on pump, more distilled and a little DazProtect for good measure
                        and run it for an hour or so...
                        drain completely and cap the ends to prevent crap getting back in during build.

                          Im on fire today! =]

                          Got another question. If I buy DazMode Protector to use in my loop, is there anything else i need? like kill coil or some special super duper fluid like koolance?

                            Distilled + DazProtect = all you ever need.

                            Fancy coolant + DazProtect = big mistake.

                              I'm afraid of using dyes in my coolant so I stick with Daz Protect and distilled water only. I prefer using coloured tubing instead - also the cheapest route too!
