Sorry for asking this stupid question.
I am using frozenq helix reservoir, and my water goes out from the bottom port and comes in from the top port. As such, it creates a vortex and there's also a lot of bubbles. The res is not at the highest point. My CPU block is, so I am assuming there's also air bubbles in there.
I've tried lifting up the res temporarily and filling it to full. When I do that, most of the bubbles are gone except for some really small ones. However, water do expand, but I am not sure about how significant the expansion is. Therefore, I would like to ask if it is safe / okay to be filling up my reservoir completely?
Otherwise, is it okay to just use the system as is with all these bubbles in the res and possibly my CPU block as well?
I will eventually move both entry and exit ports for the res to the bottom, but I am out of tubes at the moment and what I have right now isn't long enough to route to the bottom, so I need a solution to tide me through these 1-2 weeks.
One last question. I have a swiftech D5 pump. What's a good pump speed to set it at for most people?
My loop is basically Res --> pump ---> radiator ---> GPU ---> CPU ---> res.
I appreciate any help that I can get.
Thank you!
