Hello guys! I just took apart my water cooling system as I will be making some changes. It will be disassembled for about 3 weeks. I already drained all the components however there is of course some residual water. Is it needed for me to take the blocks apart and dry them or can I just leave them in the open and let them air dry?
How to get water out of water blocks

What if ,before I put my system back together, I heat up some distilled water and flush the blocks and rad with it. Will that get it done? I don't really like the idea of flushing it with alcohol. I read somewhere that the alcohol can degrade the rubber rings on the fittings.

That ought to work, yes.
I don't tend to worry too much about the effect that it has on rubber, since it's just a quick swish and it evaporates, but watch out for its interactions with acrylic.... never try to clean your reservoir with alcohol unless you're going for that particular look.
