Will my loop work? (Plan)

So yea, I don't know if this will work or not. I am not sure with the arrows (direction) of where the liquid is going to. Many thanks! :)

not expert on water cooling, but im pretty sure its not good idea to have 2 intakes for cpu block and 0 outakes.

That.

 

When you invert those arrows from CPU to res, it will work.

Make sure your pump will not run dry when building the loop. In theory it shouldn't be problematic, but just a heads-up.

While ideally you would want the res to directly feed into the pump that would still work as it is high up in the loop. Just keep an eye on it when filling to ensure the pump doesn't run dry.

May I ask how long does the pump need to run dry, before it makes and harm to it?

For example: I was filling my loop and turned on pump .... it drained it very fast and it was running dry for few secs, before I had the time to unplug it.

But well that happened only 1 time.

 

Any idea when it would make any real damage on pump?

I heard that it won't do any harm if you turned off your pc after around 4-5 seconds

If run dry it will wear the ceramic  bearing surface without fluid keeping it lubricated and cooled but if it's only a few seconds or so it's not a problem. If it was left on for a few mins the it can ruin the pump.

Just came across this.. How do I even determine the direction of the fluid/liquid in my loop!

By the outlet and inlet of your pump.

I speak my mind, sorry if thats a problem.
