hi just got a lian li v2000b and DD hi- flow tdx kit what would be the best way to have the loop, also the water block which way should it go?
ive allready tested it for 24hours with no leeks like this................

and the block...................

the order you have the loop is fine. Bit late askin though after its been leak tested ?

well its all got to come apart anyway, going to have the rad at the bottom of the case behind the 120mm intake fan.

and after all its my 1st time so u can let me off!

Should work nicely.. single rad

You'll need to leak test again in case to be safe.

ok thanks guys, 1 more thing whats the best way to empty the water out of the loop with out loseing to much water and making to much mess?

CrazyMonkey Should work nicely.. single rad () i went for single becoz didnt really want to mod my new case, i just hope this set up can keep my e6600 cool @ 1.575 volt.

unclip one tube length then stick it in a pint pot (or bucket) and then drain it off. Don't attempt to install the kit with the tubing pre-attached as thats asking for a bad mount. I wouldn't use the same water again either as it may have picked up some residue/contaminents - think of it as a final flush

Dont forget to clean the rad if its new. I think most people use a vinigar solution and leave it for 24 hours before flushing.

Wish I had known that before putting mine together! People say a lot of crap in a new rad to contaminate/reduce the performance of your system.
