    FYI your CPU block is upside down, and d-tek explicitly says in the instructions not to mount your block like that...

    I don't know if I am looking at the same picture as you are, but I see the water flow from the outlet on the pump to the inlet to the CPU block.

    Are you saying that Gravity/orientation has an effect on a closed loop system?

    The outlet is just supposed to be higher than the inlet only to avoid trapped air bubbles. This would make the D-tek nameplate on the block right-side-up.

    Technically, it is upside down, but given the loop is bled correctly/fully, it should not matter. I see nothing wrong with it given how clean the loop is
