Which XSPC kit do you have?

If it's this pump http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-011-XS&groupid=962&catid=2141&subcat=

The lower is the inlet & the upper with the metal fitting to the pump is the outlet.

The RS240 with the res pump combo.

I think the left is an inlet, but not certain

Just try it quickly with some water until someone else can give you a hand

So that would be my return from the rad ?

It would be pump outlet (The upper fitting on the reservoir, the metal threaded one) to the radiator inlet then the radiator outlet to the cpu block inlet then the cpu block outlet to the reservoirs inlet (the lower fitting)

Great thanks for all your help, you can tell im new to this watercooling lark

No problem at all, i've fitted a couple of these kits to mates pc's.

Ok guys one last question

when i put the fans on the rad are they best underneath or above or does it really matter as seen it done both ways in the watercooling gallery.

Where are you mounting the radiator?

beefybarn · 16 Jan 2012 at 13:16

In the roof of my 650d

I would mount the fans on the top of the radiator so they are bringing in fresh air. (pushing air through the radiator & into the case)

Don't worry it wont make any difference to the cases inside temps, i have tried both ways & this way is better than exhausting the cases hot air through the radiator.

Good point, had'nt thought of it that way, will give it a try thanks
