Silver in the cooling system

Can anyone with experience of this recommend the best spot, I was thinking waterblock as it couldnt get dragged through the system (on my waterblock anyway) as far as the pump which could end in tears 🙂

I usually put the coil in the reservoir.

Looks like theres a plastic plate that would stop the coil interferering with the pump in my XSPC ION, going to try a larger diameter coil shape and hover by the power button

Agreed. It could also be put inside the tubing. But the idea is to have as much surface area of the silver coil to be exposed to the fluid, to get full benefit. That is why I put it in the rez.
