This is the pump

And this is how it should be (It should be drain -_-?? "hole")

Yea sure, but uhh there is a better option imho. See my sig and linked build, I have my front rad set to drain when I need to drain my loop. Much easier and cheaper.

Just no, you have all exhaust fans which makes worst airflow possible (correct me if you flipped them) and rad with fittings on down means air trapped inside the upper tank and my rad will be at top as it is now

Not quite, but in no way shape or form does it affect airflow only dust build up (which is pretty minimal given the low fan speeds I run).

 

I have two rads. One up top (thin) and one in front (thick). Removing trapped air isn't a big deal at all.

 

Also, I just noticed this... But why are you watercooling at all with that build?

I just want silence (Which i have now too XDDD). And i have watercooled CPU with fractal's AIO which is 360mm rad and i just want to liquid cool my GPU too with the universal VGA block because why not (I KNOW ITS GTX 960). Just for looks and to make it unavaible for someone to take my cpu (my dad wants to take it when i don't clean the dishes)
