Aquagate Heatsync Build-up / Decomposing?

[Electronic Punk 0]

I installed my Coolermaster Aquagate on the second of October this year and immediatly loved it, quiet cool and most of all looks gorgeous and I couldn't have been happy with it. Recently I have been doing further modification and noticed a mark on the heatsync, I tried rubbing the marks off but they are on the inside!

It seems to be either a build up of the liquid used with the Aquagate or the grills of the heatsync actually rusting! Obviously this has got me a little upset as it doesn't quite look so nice anymore. I have only ever used the coolant provided with the Aquagate and kept the system closed at all times.

Has anyone else experienced this? Can anything be done, as a last resort getting a replacement heatsync, flushing the system and adding fresh (new coolant)

Aside from this I think the Aquagate is awesome, but this has really got me on a downer.

Here are two snaps I have taken so you can see what I am talking about, click the thumbnails for a larger image. I will do higher resolution images if need be.

I can't open the after image bigger.

Yeah, linux is fussy about .JPG and .jpg

Should be sorted now.

Here is another hi-res shot.

Thanks...did you add other fluid like UV dye into the coolant?

I have forwarded your message and pictures to HQ and awaiting their respond.

Not at all, only the supplied liquid - I still have a little bit left, but currently the tank/system is quite full.

Thanks for that info.

Any ideas what I can do?

I'll need to find out what's the cause and then i could send you another water block. But if there's more to it than just the water block then I will need to find out why if not you will have the build up again.

I will try and take another photo as close as I can, but it is difficult to tell whether it is build up or a tearing-down just looking at it.
