Corsair Obsidian WC setup, suggestions?

Where would I put my pump and res?

I think I'd need both a new pump and res to comfortably do it. But for now it's all I got.

I can't really put the res and pump to close, since the tubing will kink.

thanks

pump in bottom chamber.
res on back above rear exhaust

Or you could put the res below the exhaust fan, since the pump has a side inlet.

pump won't fit in bottom compartment.

Maybe I should buy new pump and res eventually?

take the base of it off and suspend it.

Doesn't need to go in the very bottom compartment. Something like this might be an option:

is having the rad greatly below the pump bad? Like so:

Doesn't matter, actually, although I thought that was the radiator in the roof there. But as long as gravity will feed the pump from the reservoir, you're fine. Everything else can go wherever is most convenient.

lol woops replace rad with res. I see it won't work since it would be the opposite of gravity feeding the pump.
