    here is how pumps sit in the case



    i.e. they screwed vertically directly to the case
    i have special rubber/gel pad for them, but didn't use it because some ppl worried me about possible overheating.
    air mostly went out from loop i guess, system is running a fewhours already. also u may see a little whirlpool in the right res on the pic. there is no much vibration by the touch.

    just dont know. i read before that pump ddc is very quiet.
    but not in my case, sound is remind some yowl similar to bad chipset cooler at 5000rpm

    btw, dont i need any greasing or smth? those white ball (ceramic?) on which impeller rotates, it's greasing only by water?
