Hello people.
I am currently building a brand new computer which utilises water cooling. however I am having a bit of trouble deciding what liquid to use.

I want the coolant itself to be coloured (I will use mayhems dye [UV Green]) but im not sure which base liquid to use;
Premixed coolant (planning on Mayhems X1-clear[other suggestions welcome])
Or
Distilled water.

I am also curious to the effects the dye could have on my system and maintenance.

Basically, any information about Mayhems X1/dyes effects on water-cooling systems and distilled water Vs. mayhems X1

Thanks for reading
