Firstly, your choice of components, and the build, look excellent mate. Great job so far.
I’d advise you run your cabling before you fit your tubes, and fit your ram, audio cables, front I/O, SATA etc.
For the res, as far as I can tell you can use any inlet you want. The outlet has to be the marked one though (the OUT port in the picture), as that’s for the pump. Make sure the anti-foam and anti-cyclone is fitted to the res, and you cap any port that’s not being used with a G1/4 plug.
I don’t see a problem using the out, as you can just use a 90, maybe with an extender, and drop straight into the bottom rad.
The rest of the loop seems pretty clear to me too: Pump > bottom rad > GPU > CPU > Top Rad > Res.
I missed if you’re going with hardline or not, but I would advise you go flexy, as it’ll be much easier for a first build. I personally prefer the aesthetic too.
What TT fans are those?
