PSA: Corrosion Happening on ASUS ROG Z690 Formula VRM Block, Company Remains Silent

Yep, I've had everything under the sun grow in my loops over the years and have never seen algae eat my blocks. Not once. At worst it turned my water green. But then again I've never used steel blocks...only stainless in my pumps.
You know nothing of which you speak. Algae doesn't corrode metal. Period. End of story.

These two messages do not say the same thing, yet you seem to think they do.
The tone is also incredibly wrong for these forums.

If my previous response was harsh it was due to the fact that the users system in question shows no proof of having any growth in it other than the beat into the ground mixing of metals (aluminum/copper/bronze mix). There wasn't proof of algae growth whatsoever. Saying that there was, due to said user introducing it into his/her own loop because of lack of experience was not only a huge leap, it was offensive. When comparing such a short lived loop with the other equally short lived loops in the thread. The user would have had to actively seek out a swamp with which to cultivate said algae from.

My response to you was pointing out that in 25 years of wcing, I have never had, nor seen proof of algae corroding a block in a custom loop, ever. The steel part was a joke...

No deviation from my first response intended.
Sorry if there seems to have been any confusion.
