Go to solution Solved by Grabhanem,

Anything where the topmost point of the fluid is above the level of the pump is fine.

 

Having it mounted as it is might add a small amount of splashing noise from the inlet port of the rad, but it won't cause any problems.

So im doing my first pc build, and i wanted my aio tubes facing the right side , but that didnt Work because of clearence issues.

 

so my radiator is on the side , case lian li o11 dynamic, and my tubes is facing up , is this fine ? Or Will it damage my aio ? Also my fans are as intake on the side with the radiator.

Because of course the pump is in the block and you don't want air in the pump
