Moved mine about 60 bumpy miles the other day and didnt get any leaks, thankfully. I've got the Ek advanced tube res which is watertight.

I never drained mine and used to move it to London and back, about 6 times this year

this one?

How easy is it to mount, because it looks just like a tube? also where is the input/output?

So im looking a this res with pump...

Res: EK Laing DDC X-RES 100 Reservoir Pump Top

Pump: Laing DDC-1+ Ultra Pump 600 L/hr 18W

This pair should be fine and they look like they are well made and leak proof for moving about. thoughts?

Theres an input on top one in and out on side and one in and out on bottom, you can use whichever you want and block the others. Its easy to mount as it comes with brackets you screw into your case then tighten around the res. Check out my build log to see one mounted in a pc.

Ah yes, that looks quite nice actually. i have so many decisions to make, def going to aim for a high end setup so i can add more rads in later though. gonna stick with a 200mm rad on the front of my 600T for now, just cpu. Then will maybe look to get a water-cooled GPU and stick a 240 on top and 120 in back. Many many plans and decisions...
