Pump before or after reservoir in loop?

[engstrom0304]

I have a single bay reservoir, and a pump at the bottom of the case, should i have it so the reservoir is before the pump or the pump before the reservoir,

ie.
either

res - pump - waterblock - rad - res

or

pump - res - waterblock - rad - pump

 

[Cob]

Res - pump

would you put the waterblock before or after the rad?

 

[Vertigo]

Mine goes res -> pump -> block -> rad

 

[Pilky01]

would you put the waterblock before or after the rad?

Doesnt make to much of a difference, only rule is res before pump.

Loop order does not matter at all. It is EASIER to have the res before the pump as it helps bleeding the loop but once all the air is out of the loop then the res can go anywhere.

Res - Pump - Rad - Block
