Thats what the res is for above the pump - it will do all the hard work for you :D
I'm guessing that you will be adding more to the loop at a later date - as the pump is way overkill for a single block loop.

If the water is moveing round the loop too fast (and bubbles are being sucked back into the pump inlet -
squeeze the tube to slow the flowrate down or start and stop the loop a few times.
 
I think you'll have to take your time bleeding that because the flow rate will be so high. You will almost certainly get vortices in the reservoir and air returning from the loop will get sucked back through again. Just leave it until it seems to settle down then give it a shake and then repeat until no more air comes through.
 
Yeah I might stick a GPU block in their, got most bits cheap so... Your advise is just to take my time setting up. My Rad will be at the top of my case (haf 932) and the pump at the bottom.
 
yes take ya time,and you wont get any problems,be carefull when filling up as the res will empty pretty damn quick,im sure your aware of how to jump start the psu so you only have the pump running ect,like everyone said your pump should do the work for you,also if you seem to get air stuck in rad tilt the case towards you ect.good luck and enjoy i did,and want to build more if i had the chance.

if you want ideas about where to put your res/pump check me build below.

Cool build. I want to put my res and rad in simalr place to yours. Ive got a spare PSU that im going to be using and im think in know how to jump start my psu (paper clip over green and black wire:D)
 
Bleeding with full flow is a mug's game. As suggested, get some sort of clamp on the tubing to slow down your flow but not too much as you don't want to burn out the pump. It can take 24 hours or more sometimes to fully bleed.

Then you move something and a whole load more bubbles appear!!!
 
It is a great pump / res combo nice and easy to fill and position (use three in my current build)..

it can take a while to "fully" bleed the loops as mentioned above the air does tend to get pulled straight back through the pump.. Rocking you case from side to side can help with the bubbles.. Normally takes around an hour on mine to get most the bubbles out then a couple of days for all the smaller ones to go..
