ModMyMods Launches ModWater PC Watercooling Coolants Produced in the USA

ModMyMods rose out of the proverbial ashes from the meltdown of FrozenCPU, a PC hardware boutique in upstate New York that catered primarily to custom watercooling. While FrozenCPU is back up and running in some form today, people in the northern states and along the east coast of the US have become accustomed to having a local resource for PC modding and cooling supplies with the Rochester-based ModMyMods. We met representatives from the company at CES this year where they showed off their upcoming line of coolants for DIY custom loops, aptly named ModWater. They anticipated a launch in March at the time, but have managed to churn out enough in the month since to release these for sale as of the time of this news post.

The company tells us that ModWater is the result of over an year of work that began with the making of ultra-pure water from an in-house designed purification system with a series of processing to bring down the final TDS (total dissolved solids) value to <0.05 ppm. They are separately selling this water in 5 US gallon tanks for system integrators, but the retail customer will not doubt be interested in the coolants themselves that come in Pure-Clear, and several UV-Reactive colors including: Red-UV, Green-UV, Blue-UV, and Clear-UV (Blue base UV). The coolants ship in 1 liter containers for $9 each in bottles that are shaped similar to motor oil bottles, with a spout design to help pour the coolant out. The coolants, as expected these days, has additives for anti-corrosion properties with biocide and fungicide activity as well. If you are interested, here's the collective link for the product pages.

Totally
TheGuruStudNo logic allowed. Why would you use something:
1.) cheap
2.) specifically designed for high heat and antioxidation
3.) lasts 150k miles in an ICE, so lifetime in a PC
4.) compatible with every possible metal, alloy and plastic you'll use it with
5.) cheap
6.) comes in multiple colors

A gallon of long life concentrate (which works perfectly with tap water, it won't precipitate) is 10 bucks.
I remember mentioning that I use coolant in my loop here and was met with harsh mocking and heavy skepticism, even after I pointed out that Fesser(anyone remember them?) a few years earlier was taking off the shelf antifreeze re-labeling it as pre-mix, adding a healthy markup, and selling it to the pc crowd. I don't know if it's just TPU or the DIY PC community as a whole but there too many closed minded individuals who think they're knowledgeable because they could swipe a CC and put some "LEGOs" together.

"Influencers" would be shunned by the manufacturers for suggesting cheap, proven alternatives and PETG is easier to bend. So it tries to sell "look how easy it is the hard loop your system". Pros use copper, acrylic or even glass.

I also find my the rubber that rides on the ceramic ball on the DDC pump isn't showing signs of wear. Unlike my dead pump which i used "PC cryofluid" in my HTPC.
