Hey Everyone,

I'm currently using Mayhem's X1 UV Green concentrate and have used their UV Yellow dye before as well. Are there decent coolants/concentrates that keep their color longer and do not really dye the clear tubing? Also, in regards to how I wish to use the fluids, are nano fluids worth it compared to concentrates or dyes?

Disclaimer: I'm fully aware that the universal standard is go with a solid color tube (if you want color) and run distilled water through it. I'm not looking for those answers, so please don't leave them here.

Not really mayhems is still by far the gold standard. Red's are the worst about staining and blues tend to be the best. Best being minimal if any staining. Stay away from the aurora line though if long term use is your thing. Looks great but the microbeads (?) have a tendency to drop out or clump up pretty quick.

EK and XSPC both have some good coolants as well (most of EK's actually being rebranded mayhems) but they last about the same time.

Nano fluids: just stay away they are stupid expensive and perform identical to every other coolant.
