I will be gone from my computer for almost 6 weeks and I have a custom water cooled pc.

Do I let the pumps run for the time I am gone? I have a power brick to 4 pin molex to just power the pumps, so my system will be off.

Or

Can I just turn it off and let it sit? Please note, I have a silver kill coil in one loop and I use biocide I my second loop.


Thank you :)

    I recommend turning it off. If something starts to leak it could be leaking for a while and if the water is out of the pump it can kill it. Also no need to use the power if the system is off not doing anything.
