Coolant Dissipating

How much is normal for a small pump combo? I just topped it off last month and now it's down again about 1/8th. It's connected to my聽240mm and 360mm radiators, cpu and gpu blocks. Temperatures are good.

I don't think any coolant dissipated. I assume a lot of the air that was still trapped within the radiators and blocks managed to free themselves after a while.聽

I'd just fill it up again and see again in a month.

It's either air bleeding out of the system or you have a slow leak.

Losing a bit every few days in a newly loop is totally normal as others have said. Probably air bubbles and then microbubbles working their way out.聽

I'd probably do a cursory check of the fittings for damp just to be safe though.

It's not so new, put in the new radiator this summer. I found the problem, I didn't screw the cap on tight enough. This pump seems fragile so I slowly turn it, so not spill anything or turn it too much to maybe crack some part of it. EK pump combo.

Thanks for the responses.
