will this cause problems feeding the pumps?

[Elganja]

I owe a real build thread still, but I'm putting together my dual loop watercooling setup... wondering if this will be a problem:

aigo? gillbot? anyone else?

i see no problem. Because water will work itself out of that little top when your res if full from pressure.

You might form a kink from suction pressure tho. I would swap the inlet and outlet, so you have the 45 on inlet,
and try to make the route simplar?

And wheres the rest of the computer... dude it looks like you have one nice build going there.

just for piece of mind... i changed things around a bit:

must better imho... better then the jungled mess i had before

build thread coming soon... i have tons of pics

is that tubing not kinked?

then it looks a lot nicer.

Also make sure you have enough tubing to be able to slightly pull it out so you can fill it.

surprisingly no kinks...

esp since i had to do a loopy like this to avoid kinks:

just saw this... either you like to ninja edit, or my reading comprehension goes downhill quick as i get later into the evening... lol

for the top one (red hoses) there is no slack. Not a big deal at all, as I plan on removing the optical drive to gain access to the fill hole. Easier and cleaner to do it this way imho

for the bottom one (blue hoses), it's a bit of dumb luck. There is just enough space to pull it out. It does put a little stress on the connection by the pump, but it isn't horrible (doesn't kink). I'll have to keep an eye on it, but I think the compression fittings won't allow it to get loose.
