The junk created big water flow restriction and big pressure drop which knocked the air from the water.

Water flows because of the pressure difference, maximal pressure is right at the pump outlet a drops along the way to zero in the reservoir. Water would not flow without a pressure difference. Your loop is set up with a lot of components in one chain (in serie) - that means maximal pressure...

I tried to explain that you have a very long loop with 4 rads with all parts in serie that has a notable pressure drop along the way and you in the place of lower pressure with higher probabillity of bubbles coming out of the water placed a bubble catcher. I just realised that a major factor in...

When a part creates flow restriction, there is higher pressure of the input water and lower pressure of the output water. The pressure drops. You can see in the reviews on this site, that radiators have up to 1 PSI and CPU water blocks up to 1,5 PSI pressure drop. If you have 4 rads and two...

You have this rad as a first item after the pump and the flow in it is probably so lively (turbulent?) that it can carry away any air collecting on top. On the other hand, the problematic rad is almost the last item. BTW there is a pressure drop along the water flow route and lower pressure...

He would be fine just with those two cross flow 360s. His PC is simply overraded. :)

Yes. If AMD had smart shareholders, the best strategy is to limit profits to gain as large market share as possible. Is it in today corporate world even possible to execute any real business strategy?

So you want to put already 12 years old PSU in your 10 year computer build? Perhaps you may want to stretch it a bit more and have a functioning computer with 25 years old PSU coining a new Guiness world record??? :eek:

You can make the 240 rad on the back wall a cross flow rad by putting Y splitter in front of both lower connections a draw the water from the top. The air will obviously have no chance to accumulate there. You can also have 2 outputs from the rad, one on the top, while slightly lowering the rad...

Well, that fitting holds the hose well, it bites into it REALLY WELL. I wonder if this may have been a design decision, but as I said, not a good one. If there were 3 barbs on the fittings tube, only the last one sharp and the first two normal, the cutting of the hose would not be a problem...

The tube has correct dimensions. I cannot return the fittings anymore, only RMA them. I think these fittings are genuine. When I realised that the fitting is not very clen, I tried polishing it with my T-shirt, new holes appeared. It also scrapes my fingernail: And cuts into hoses and...

I think that the flow rate in the loop is mostly determined by restrictive components as water blocks and radiators and how are they connected together. If you have everything in serie, the resulting restriction of these components probably makes any right angle fittings and other disruptions in...

The rads can stand on the bottom, not much weight support is needed, I think I can make the test version of the box just from cardboard to test, how it works. Unfortunately such cases do not have good options to mount rads inside, you would need to modify them so much, that it slowly loses the...

I am planning to make a box for four 280 rads and have the upper part extending at least 30 cm above the rads to see, it this can estabish some chimney passive self cooling effect. The problem is that it will be made of wood and will not look good. My self made creations for some reason never...

I think it would be practical to have threads for manufacturers to visit and see the ideas of customers in one place. I noticed, that these fittings: EK-Quantum Torque 6-Pack STC 12/16 - Nickel, Product EAN: 3831109824375 https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-quantum-torque-6-pack-stc-12-16-nickel...
