    Bleed mc35x w/res combo

    How the heck do you bleed this thing? i had the revision 1 and got the new one due to cracks in my old one and im having the same issue i had with the other one. WHen i turn off the computer, water rises and some drops come out from the top. I dont have it hooked up to the mobo with the rpm sensor which i think might be the problem. I just stuck a barb and some tube INSIDE like i saw on a review to see if that helps but everytime i turn off the unit i get the water rising and some comes out, currently i have the top barb cab unscrewed hoping it lets some air out as the tube stops any water from coming out but maybe im doing something incorrect my res has a TON of bubbles, no leaks so far either as i know that sometimes causes that ill keep an eye on it but ive tried tilting the case, rocking it, etc. how long should it take to bleed? res is highest point in loop.

    Hook up the PWM to the motherboard then lower the pump speed w/ Speedfan. You should have an easier time bleeding if you slow the pump.

    do you see any harm waiting to do that for 24 hours? im using compressions for the first time so i just want to ensure no leaks, obviously it wont bleed correctly at this moment, but it should be okay running like that over night correct? the air bubbles shouldnt cause any pump harm?

    make sure that you get most of the air out by toggling to power to the pump before letting it run for long term leak testing. if you get a large bubble in the pump it could mess things up. you do not have to worry about it once you clear the large bubbles out.
