Yes. I am hoping that that 990X is real beasty.
I ordered the electronics today. I am planning to get the WC worked out ASAP. I am experienced with this stuff, but I forgot to order a bottom T to help draining the system for maintenance. I don't have it in the current system and am at the point of wanting to flush the system.
The water thru the reservoir looks very clear & clean (no "goobers"). The tubing as I mentioned earlier has a yellow brown tinge. But I buy the cheap stuff so replacing it is no big deal. I am very focused on performance & being able to just see the status of the system is important. As Kougar mentioned earlier, maybe the tinge is just the Water Wetter's red dye. And, I know that I poured too much in the current system. I put in about 1/3 the bottle where a teaspoon would have been more appropriate. I may wait a while this time before/if I add it. The only additive is a fungicide to distilled water.
I am very careful to ensure that the only metal in the loop is copper ... in the block & radiator with nickel plated 1/2" fittings. My 1st 2 systems ran for >6 years with the little to no maintenance of adding distilled water. That was mostly because of ignorance than a clearer need of some maintenance ... live & learn!!
