Hey Guys!

 

I have a custom Water cooling loop in my system. I filled up my system and I lost a few ml of water (Clear coolant mix). Is it beacause the air Bubbles left my system so I see less water in the reservoir?

Air bubbles can take a long time to disappear and you'll get a tiny bit of evaporation over time as well. If you don't see any puddles or anything leaking then you're fine, just need to top it off again.

@Lurick To fill the loop, do I fill it up and leave the pump running with the cap off, or do I simply fill it up and close the reservoir?

 

let me know thanks!

You can do either. If the loop has been built recently, tilting the case around and running the pump at max could help get air out.
