Bleeding xspc ddc bay res?

Mynight · 28 Jun 2013 at 04:19

Has anyone got any advise for me? It's a powerful little pump but I can't help but feel xspc missed an obvious problem by having inlet right above the pump intake.

I've tried shoving a piece of plastic between the inlet to direct bubbles away from the pump but it doesn't seem to be doing much good.

Am I missing somthing obvious?

i dont have a bay res but i know what your talking about as my res is attached to pump,the best way ive found is to run it from a seperate PSU and manually pick the case up and flip it around and shake ect to get the air all out,i think with my setup a lot of air get trapped in the rad,its a proper pain but once its done its done

Haha I look like terminator now

Brilliant it worked

thank you

Phew only took 4 hours haha next time seperate tube and pump none of this malarky

Side note: my heat spreader on one of the ram modules fell off when turning the case. Presume I'm ok to just stick it back on?
