my question is, how i can erase that bubbles? its normal? can destroy my GPU? or will dissapeard with time?

thanks a lot for the reply!

Well did you bleed the system of air when you were done? If temps are okay and the air bubble stays there you should be fine, if it moves to the pump it could burn out the pump. I don't see how the GPU could be harmed unless that air bubble was blocking water from cooling the GPU core and causing it to overheat.

I don't know enough about your loop to tell you how to bleed it.

In a round about way, if you start and stop the pump multiple times it will force the bubbles around the loop. just watch your res level and over time you will see it drop as it works out all the bubbles that were caught in the system.

You can normally just unplug the pump for a second or 2 and them plug it back in, just enough to get the water to stop moving the start it back up for 10-15 second to get cool water back thru the loop.

You can also tilt your case around to help the bubbles release and move thru the tubes. But if your temps are fine i wouldnt be to concerned about it, they will eventually work there way out.
