I thought most people usually put the res after the component it's supposed to cool, for example:
pump/res>CPU>120mm rad>gpu>240mm rad>pump/res
Which xspc pump/rad combo do you have? is it the dual 5.25 bay one or the single?
Make sure to check the CPU and GPU block inside to make sure there's no gunk or contamination making the fluid too heavy or clogging up any fitting.
I have never used a pump/res combo, so i cant tell you if the pump is powerful enough or not.
I'll have to do a little research.
It doesn't really matter. Try to go for the shortest tubing routes and make sure its pump and reservoir are one after another. Main reason I like bay pump and reservoirs combos its just one less route to worry about, and the reservoir can act as a low end performance top.
