[SOLVED] Top mounted aio tubes

[Perseidit]

Hello. Just a quick question about my top mounted aio. I was wondering if my tubes are too bent and if i should turn the pump so the tubes from pump head are pointing down. Or if everything is fine like they are now.

hope this image link works:

That's totally fine as is. That's a pretty typical bend.
I've seen much worse.

That is good to hear. so i'll just leave it like that. the tubes felt a bit firm and i only found few pictures through google that had mounted this same aio as i have done. can't be too careful as i know people mess with these a lot and it is my first aio build . thank you for quick reply.

your setup sure has tubes and cables going on. My concern was if my tubes are under stress as they felt a bit firm but then i read from somewhere that they will soften a bit too when power is on. As of now i am going with this one top mounted 360mm aio with 2x200mm front blowers and 1x140mm rear exhaust. Intel's 10700k under that pump going for basic overclocks like 5.1ghz for each core and when rtx series cards are available again there will be 3060ti/3070/3080 with some basic oc depending which ever i get my hands on. I believe my cooling setup will be adequate.
