Water cooling question

[Trevorskii]

Just got an optical drive for Christmas (I burn a lot of CDs and such) but I have my AIO top mounted in my case. Is this too much stress on the tubing? Thanks in advance!

That isn't bending it too much and will be ok just make sure it's not working the tubing off the barbs and still fully seated.

That looks like it should be fine. I had my AiO's tubes bent at a horrific angle once for a few weeks and they haven't leaked yet

Does the picture seem like it's gonna work it off of the barbs or no? You know more than I do about it

It's usually a really tight fit to the point where it can't move so it's unlikely but just to make sure it doesn't move back and forth and get tugged a lot.

Ok, I don't move my rig very often, usually for maintenance purposes and that's it. I'll make sure the drive doesn't move it much. Really appreciate your help, thank you
