AIO tubing question

Hi guys, 

 

Question question, I'm sure I'm being silly here but I would like some reassurance. From the photos attached you can see my current setup with the Corsair H80i V2. The tubes are fairly bent and I'm concerned about the bend at the interface between the radiator and the start of the tubing. 

 

Will the orientation I have the AIO in currently will that put pressure on those connections over time and potentially lead to a leak? 

 

I'm considering keeping this for a couple years and then moving over to the more reliable air cooler, thoughts? 

 

Thanks.

If it leaks blame corsair and get them to pay for a new pc lol

The tubes are meant to flex and bend so as long as they don't kink you're fine. Aios that break tend to be on the line of defects or running the loop above spec heats causing the water to evaporate and kill the pump. Otherwise it's pretty rare to break a aio.
