plucky anchor
aight
so i dont mean the radiater at the bottom
but the tubes, the radiator stays at the front
the idea is to avoid having an air pocket inside the aio pump, which can kinda fuck up its lifespan
upbeat oxide
We I have the okay one
plucky anchor
so you want the tallest point to not be the aio pump
plucky anchor
yeah 180 degrees lmfao
upbeat oxide
As in just turn it upside down
plucky anchor
ye lmfao
upbeat oxide
Oh no no I thought u meant put it under the graph card
upbeat oxide
My friend says it doesn't matter, its a closed loop
The small one is there cuz..idk they just could hahah
plucky anchor
My friend says it doesn't matter, its a closed loop
it does, there is around 10% air in it
plucky anchor
The small one is there cuz..idk they just could hahah
welp if ya gonna have it there at least flip it so it doesn't steal air from your gpu lmao
upbeat oxide
"Lmao" 💀
Smart butt eh?
I'll rotate it sure
U don't have to use that tone
When you try to help people
I'm not stupid, I'm not the one who built it
My friends at the pc shop built it
So I trusted they knew what they were doing
Bye bye now
plucky anchor
Smart butt eh?
I don't mean it as laughing at you it's just a chill lol
so I didn't mean if I offended you
upbeat oxide
I can't rotate it, my mother board doesn't allow to have the cooler thingy on the bottom, it's on top
So the second image u sent
Is the best for this build I guess
plucky anchor
I can't rotate it, my mother board doesn't allow to have the cooler thingy on th...
the tubes can't reach?
upbeat oxide
They might, but in the third image the cooler is a bit more down
Is that just for the rube reach or optimisation?
Cuz if its not just for the tube reach then it shouldn't be done
plucky anchor
I mean it doesn't really matter as long as the highest point is that part of the radiator like demonstrated in the pic
upbeat oxide
It is the highest point
plucky anchor
can I get a side pic
upbeat oxide
Wait I can take a close up if u want
Yea
I mean the curve of the tubes is the highest point
Now that I'm looking at it
Maybe the tubes would reach
I think they would have tried that
plucky anchor
not necessarily, a lot of people think tubes at top looks better and choose that
doesn't help that 50% of prebuilts do it kek
but what worries me more is that pump
I mean yeah the tubes do go above it but that's kinda close lmao
and ik the air pocket can gurgle around that's a reason why it's preferable to have it like it is in the third and fourth pic
but if you rotate it 180 degrees and move it as far up as you can that would be best
those tubes should def be able to reach
plucky anchor
h510 is really tight and usually you can't fit tubes at bottom
upbeat oxide
To me it looks like you could
plucky anchor
can you move the radiator up btw
plucky anchor
To me it looks like you could
nah I owned one you can't
upbeat oxide
Yes probably
plucky anchor
cuz the tubes come out and have some tension to them
plucky anchor
Yes probably
if you don't want tubes at bottom I would at least move it up then so the radiator is above the aio pump
upbeat oxide
They would have done it if they could have, they tried to put it at the top, they told me, so I'm guessing they tried some other options too
plucky anchor
that actually matters from a longevity standpoint
upbeat oxide
Wouldn't rly be above
plucky anchor
They would have done it if they could have, they tried to put it at the top, the...
yeah top mount
but I mean front mount but move it further up
plucky anchor
can you move it further up than it is right now? I don't know that the screw hole placements are like
upbeat oxide
Yes, I can, that's what I'm talking about
plucky anchor
then yea I would do that
upbeat oxide
The radiator still wouldn't be higher than the pump, they would be on same hight
plucky anchor
then the radiator would be far more of the highest point
upbeat oxide
It wouldn't
plucky anchor
The radiator still wouldn't be higher than the pump, they would be on same hight
yeah ik it's just the top of the radiator that has to be above
upbeat oxide
Right....so it really somehow affects it that much that just..less than a third of it has to be above the pump
Very..dainty
plucky anchor
Right....so it really somehow affects it that much that just..less than a third ...
not necessarily but preferably
right now the pump is juuuust above the rad
which is kinda suboptimal, hence my suggestion
plucky anchor
you only find out years after
it's only 8 screws anyways lol
but I gotta go to bed
consider it
plucky anchor
upbeat oxide
Must be a reason they did it
upbeat oxide
My friend from the shop just told me it's all good so
He said I can rotate it if I want, they put it there cuz it would fit up top
Guess they haven't tried rotating it
Imma try it tomorrow
See if the tubes reach
