HI all,

Doing another crazy watercool build and have a quick question.

Is it ok to mount a res sideways? Will coble together a fill port to top up in situe. I cant see an issue but thought id ask haha!

Cheers all

I've got my res mounted horizontally and its running fine

I don't see it being a problem so long as your exit port is as level as the lowest point of the res.

I had no success mounting a tube Res side ways it just wouldn't bleed for love nor money.

a bay res is very simular to a tube on it's side.
But as frozennova said it can be a pita if you can't have the case tilted for a few hours at a time.

Fill line is a must - how about a swiftech micro res (plus fill line)
