Still can't get 5GHz or even 4.75. Kept getting the BSOD right after the Windows logo disappears @ 4.75GHz....I tried 1.6 and 1.62v @ 4.75 and only 1.6 @ 5GHz, but I tried 1.7 yesterday without it being quite as cold.

The chiller started out @ -40c and is up to -37c now. It seems pretty watery, but it must have thickened up a little because it's not flowing as awesomely as it was last night.

Mix is approximately 4/5 washer fluid and 1/5 antifreeze. Antifreeze gets too thick I think. I may try thinning with a couple gallons of denatured alcohol, but that's like $30. Good idea?

EDIT: yup as the reservoir temp goes up slightly with the top open I see the cpu temp creep down, so that tells me the flow is picking up a little.
