MCP655 orientation?

Go to solution Solved by VSG,

Just make sure the inlet and outlet are properly used up and the pump inlet isn't acting against gravity. Other than that it is ok.

Does it matter what way my Swiftech MCP655 is oriented? Currently I have it how it normally is I guess, mounted to the bottom of my case. I have the pump mounted and tubing setup. I was maybe looking for something like this: http://www.ekwb.com/shop/reservoirs-and-acc/reservoir-acc/ek-uni-pump-holder-120mm-fan.html to mount it to my front intake 240mm rad. Or possibly on the side of the case somehow, but either of these might flip the orientation. Does the pump have to be oriented flat? Or could I mount it to the side of my case and it would still work ok?
