I know that you are never suppost to bend a hose to a point where it kinks, but digging around on various watercooling supply websites and I have seen some of the 90* elbows that you can place to get your line into those hard to reach places.
For me, the biggest thing about my case is I *hate* the rats nest of wires inside. To a point where I would want to mod out the wires to the exact length or find places to hide them (I LOVE the Voodoo wire jobs). I would like to be able to do my water cooling in the same fashion. Have straight lines of tubing and not have tubing curved left and right and just looking "cluttered".
My only consern and question is:
Does using the elbows hinder the flow of water by a recordable amount? An example would be if I put in an elbow, would that reduce my GPH (gallons per hour) by 1-2..or by like 10+?
The pump im looking at is the Swifttech MCP355 and its rated at 120GPH. So losing 1-2 aint bad, but if I lose 1-2 for ever elbow in there, then I might have some issues.
Thanks for any info you can give me on this.
