First loop bleeding problems

markoboyo11 · 8 Oct 2016 at 18:26

I am having a problem with my new loop and think it still hasn't bleed properly.

Been up and running a couple days now but the pump is still making a lot of noise and I can hear constant running water like a tap is on.
I have tried all the ushal like rotating case but its not shifting.

Any sugestions? I'm worried now the cpu block is the wrong way around, going to take it apart soon and add a gpu block but want to get it running right first so I can be sure the pump is ok.

heres a pic of it.

A week really. Well thats good news tbh. I thought it would have cleared by now if it was going to.

Yes I think you are right and they are in front rad just cant seem to shift them. I can hear bubbles but i cant see them through the pastel liquid.

The pipe coming out of the cpu block isnt quite full and its a bit frothy. If that makes sence. Got me worried that the actual copper block on cpu block was wrong way around but probably just being paranoid.

Yeh the actual block is seperate from the bracket and can be rotated 180deg, worring I done that by accident but probably just paranoid.
Unfortunately the front rad will only fit that way round.

OK will give it a bit more time and keep leaning it before I worrie.

cheers, its nothing fancy, fired it in in about 30mins as was excited to see what it was like. will take more time in my next build.

that's reassuring to know that it can thake a while tbh, just had the pc on the floor doing cartwheels and nothing......so heres hoping.

well its been 10 days and still havnt managed to get the bubbles out and I'm just going to drain it to add a gpu block, so will be starting all over again :-)

temps are still awesome tho

yeh unfortunately I cant put the bottom radiator that way around in this case.

Wish I had splashed out and bought the d5 photon 170 instead of the ion but I was trying to keep costs down, will upgrade in a few months I think if this pump doesn't quiet down.

Overall tho I'm delighted with the build as my first jump into water cooling, getting 30-40Deg across both cpu and gpu running heaven with rig in sig.

pic if anyone is interested
