Hey I recently changed my Case and built in a new AIO (Arctic liquid freezer III 240). After I was finished I noticed that I placed the cooling block with the pump upside down. My question now is can I leave it this way or should I better build it in the right way?

    Hello Individual_Title_299, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    Leave it. Its fine. Pump is somewhere in the middle of the system. Youre gucci. Just change it when you change the thermal pase next time.

    Only if you want to, but it IS always better for your pump to be lower than the point where the pipe meets the radiator because then the pump doesn’t get any air bubbles. Just keep this in mind the next time you build
