Pump / Res Location Help

HopefulSplash · 3 May 2014 at 19:16

Here is my current location of the XPSC res and a pump is it a good location and does it matter that they are basically level

any ideas on mount it else where in corsair 750d

also what is the best idea for fill port i was thinking a tube with a fitting on the end that i could just put a plug in after i have filled the tube

yes it matters they shouldn't be level

get the res higher than the pump

it doesn't need to be much but it needs to be above

for a fill port have it at the highest point in your case
give us a wider pic of your case and setup

It's fine where it is, there is fluid above the pump so it still guarantees a constant flow of fluid to the pump.

I would put the rez above the pump as well.

Mayhem coolants are always recommended in here.

For long term usage, I would suggest getting Pastel series.

But there are also suggestions on going Ultra Pure Water + dyes + silver coil.
