hi everyone!

iv only posted on here a couple of times so far and im planning on starting a build thread soon but was just after a bit of advice-this is my 2nd build with liquid cooling on my last build I went res -rad - cpu -rad -gpu but I have read a it doesn't really matter what order is this correct so for example I could go cpu - gpu - rad -rad and not have an issue?

a quick pic any suggestions would be great thanks (the sponge wont be in there when its running :P and im still waiting on a couple of fans etc before I start doing a bit more colour coding!)

Hi there, yours is very similar to the one I have just built. this si what I did@

pump/res-out>flow meter-in>flow meter-out>480 rad-in>480 rad-out>motherboard block-in>motherboard block-out>cpu block-in>cpu block-out>pump/res-in.

A tip also. the rad in the front should realy have the ports up the top, better for bleeding air out ect ect.

Also turn the pump/res combo around so the ports are facing the rear of the case.

In my suggested loop order I used a LOT of angle fittings mostly 90s some 45s and 1 30.

Hope it helps
 
thanks for the reply,i did have the rad the other way up at first but it seemed like I would struggle as im using hardlines so it didn't look as if I would get it around the res if I used the side ports and the drive bay was in the way for the top ports-I may have to get a few angle fittings just to play about with
just had a go at turning the res around too as I liked that idea! however the bracket is all one piece top to bottom and gets in the way

You tried a bracket that fits onto the fans ? then fit the pump/res to that. I did that for my pump/res combo although mine was not a photom
