Hi guys
I recently moved over to a bigger case so doubled the length of the hose on my swiftech h320.
I think it's maybe too long, could this be the cause of slightly higher temperatures?
 
have you stil got a nice flow going around the loop? if the pumps strong enough to keep it moving it shouldnt make any difference. is it just because the ambient temperature is higher? you can check the flow even if you cant see the coolant. if some of the loop is a lot warmer than others its a sign there isnt enough flow. eventually the temperature in a loop equalises so a difference in different parts would suggest a weak flow.
 
Thanks damo temps feel fine along the tubing mind you its also a new motherboard and case so should worry as was getting
Around 43 to 47c now around 50c
