Comos S Watercooling Part 2

That should be fine, as long as the res is still feeding the pump :)

I know what you mean, you just need to tinker with stuff from time to time. I prefer to build PC's for other people, saves me spending my own money haha

yea sounds good just an odd question since im getting 1/2 tubes compared to the 7/16 i used to get they wont have a problem fitting on 1/2 chrome barbs will they or do i need to buy new barbs as well.

[Fudd Rucker]

they will fit, carefully.

Soak them in very very very hot water and cram em on the fittings before they cool.

So i finished the loop out of curiosity using the primochill tube did u guys heat up the tube in hot water before sliding it in or not. I ask because it went in on my Swiftech barbs a little too easy and i kinda did not like that. Well the worse happened after filling it my Swiftech Block had a tiny leak luckily i put some paper towels around the area so i guess its gonna be delayed some more suggestions for a block and was it wrong for me to heat up the tube? yes no. I used zip ties to secure each barb i hope i didnt use the wrong barb i use the standard Swiftech i believe 1/2 inch.

If I'm reading this right you went from 7/16" tubing to 1/2" tubing? If so, that tubing will fit fairly easily over 1/2" barbs (what it was designed for), but having a proper seal with your clamps will be more critical to preventing leaks. (Many folks who run 7/16" tubing on 1/2" barbs don't bother with clamps at all).

yea it went on fairly easily it kinda had me worried lol but makes sense. but yea ill redo the fitting as i have to put in the new block now anyways ill add 2 zipties on each as you suggested.
