May i know does it matter how I position the radiator, like how i placed below? Must the inlet/out hose be at the top, bottom or side?

if its a compact kit from corsair no orientation bro... since its prefilled and might be no air remain in the loop...

if its custom kit... recommended outlet at top for easier bleeding...

Thank you dudes. My unit is Corsair H50, factory sealed tubing. So I can place in whatever orientation and won't affect the performance and function right?

hhmm.... I think it's around RM2.2k. The damages mainly came from the Rad, compression fittings and 45/90 deg adapters.

the WC was initially done with limited stuff, ended up with 1 bad kink and 1 mild kink. more over with an awkwardly placed tube res. got fed up with the compromised flow and appearance. I decided to pour in another RM700 with the bay res, feser rad and more 90 deg adapters.
