Hello, I was just wondering if I have a problem with my water block as there appears to be a half filled channel in the water block, I'm not sure if it has to do something with water pressure or if I have to change the orientation of the block. The system has been bleeding for ever and those bubbles wont come out by shaking and changing pump speeds as they have no where to go. I dont know if its affecting my temps, idle is at 32-35 and load is at 65 C with a 4.6 GHz overclock. here are some pictures,
Thank you for your help

(P.S, the bubbles are in the lower right and left channels where the liquids doesn't fill up the whole Chanel)



System specs :

i7 4790k

MSI Gaming 5 Z97 motherboard

32 gigs of corsair vengence ram : 2400 mhz

Water cooling :

EKWB supremecy Evo plexi

EKWB XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM pump

EKWB 360mm radiator

Looking pretty rad, but why is there an open tube coming out of the reservoir? perhaps that is sucking in air while the pump is doing its job. You should close that loop, secondly, those temps seem normal especially with that OC you have going on. Do not worry about the 'air bubble' it will move around in time and fix itself.

Plus, do not worry about the placement, it should be perfectly fine if your pump is doing its job correctly.

The tube is merely connected the to the top port to allow air bubbles to come out and not have liquid go out when I shake the PC , if you think the temps are normal than alrighty
 


Not sure where you got that idea, but I am personally against leaving it open, consider condensation when the PC gets super hot from a nice long gaming session. (depends on the solution used though), Id close that ASAP.
