I agree. looks like its in and out without going through it... usually in is on one side, and out is on the other.

Ok fellas, time to put it to the test.AGAIN

GPU is Normal. And so far my PC has been idling at the previous temps before splitting the AIO...with the case open max temp on the gpu is 40 and cpu is 50. Going to close everything up now and see the results.

Sure, but it will be hard to fill the loop with the fill port being unreachable that way, unless you put in one of these like I did:


But even then it would be hard to plumb one of those in in that location.

I think you could just unclip the reservoir and get a funnel in there without too much issue. The mount isn't permanent... Which makes me think I should probably go with the clips instead of the bottom mount on mine when I get them.

I can get to it fine. in fact I have already poured in the amount that was in there before.

But even then it would be hard to plumb one of those in in that location.

It sure as hell is to fill the top rad. I kind of wish I had bought a swiftech 320 rad w/a fill port like what comes with the h220.

Well I took out the entire loop, now that i have done that it seems to me that the noise in the loop is now gone, the air seems to have disappeared and now my rig seems like it is running the way it was meant to. Not only that my gpu idles around 25 degrees now and my cpu maxes around 55.

How you like the case? I been busy with work and life so have not been on here much and posted pics of my computer yet. I can post this one...me just having fun in the new Apache flight helmet. After I had it on I learned it is worth 500K USD because it is a prototype......:)
