Hey there!
I'm having some problems setting my my WC system. I have a Zalman Reserator 1 v2 setup for my system. In my system I have one EK HF CPU block and 3 EK full-cover GPU blocks. All components are connected with 8mm/10mm tubes with compression fittings.
The first time I filled the reserator I used all 10 feet of the tube (so that I can move the reserator away from the case to a cooler place). The water just didn't fill up the tube and there were several chunks of air in the tube which could not be push out. So I drained the water, cut the tube into half length, and refilled the reserator. This time those chunks of air were gone. However the CPU block was not fully filled. The water level in the CPU block was only a bit above the inlet and outlet position. (Block installed vertically) Almost half of the block was not filled with water.
So my question is whether the pump in the reserator is powerful enough to push water through all component. Is there anything I should do the make the water flow better?
Pump Specifications:
Coolant Capacity : Max. 2.5ℓ
Integrated Water Pump : 5 W, Qmax 300 ℓ/h
Maximum Lift : 0.5 m
Thanks you for looking!
