Before anyone downvotes me, the comment above is disparaging and assumes I don't know what I am doing, very typical know-it-all German "I never passed engineering course" attitude.

special inhibitors

There's NOTHIN special about propylene/ethylene glycol.

That is why you cannot put normal water in the loop. Manufacturers use non conductive liquid and special inhibitors so that almost no electromigration takes place.

Yea no shit, I used 50/50 PG mix. Every single Cooler Master radiator I hav, even pulled fresh off AiOs, hav this problem. It's definitely just low quality aluminum meant for mass manufactured shit products meant to last 2-3 years tops. Several other alu radiators I have don't have this problem.

Stop acting like I'm the dumbass here, I've been doing this for nearly 20 years, and I'm probably older than you.

You likely replaced the wrong part.

A full system bleed and refill with the same PG mix I've been using for 15 years isn't a wrong part.
