first try not to double, triple or quad post admins don't like it. you can edit your older post or first post with the edit button on the bottem right of your posts.

as for kinking you can get some of this to help prevent kinking.

and your photos didn't work so i can't tell if its the tubing's fault that it kinked or you put to much of a bend.

oh sorry bout that, but yea the picture i couldent find my didgital cam so i had to use my cell, and like it souldent be the tubing cuz its anti kink, but like i cna see any other config so prevent the bends hmmm\

ive seen the springs i was thinking about using some of this what do u think

ya its the same thing as what i posted but plastic (i think the one i posted was metal) but i only posted it to show you what i meant.

once you get your digital or a better shot , maybe even do a quick paint picture. then i or someone else here can help better.

notice those are the two possible ways that the tubing could exit the case due to GPU card and sound card

the pink sharpie bo in the midle of the mobo tray is the spot on the mobo where the cpu waterblock will be above that is the resovoir and under the drivebays will be the pump and above that (via T-connector) i have installed a DD fill port

well i see alot better what you mean. i'm not sure if that spring stuff would even work. but can you drill holes in these spots? marks by yellow.

here is a better idea oh what i mean. A is the best spot since its straight in with no bends. b. you can flip the rad 180deg and put it throught those holes, provided there is no hdd there. c. and one of those sets of holes might work but would have bends, not sure if it would kink.

the most ideal spot is right by the rad barbs so there is little to no bend at all.

[rebelliont56]

B could work but actually if u look closley there are circles there
i punched them out (they are meant for tubing they even supply plastic things to go inside so it doesnt cut the tubing BUT, the wholes are only for 1/4" ID sadly i think i could drill holes were A is, thanks a bunch man!

ill keep ya posted
