Any tips on how best to do it? im going to redo the tubing so i can actually fit the side of my case back on.. the setup looks like this at the moment, any idea where best to cut the tubing, if that needs to be done to drain it?
*edit* its not the T-Line thats the problem, its the Y fitting coming out of the CPU Block, it sticks out about 3 inches from the case and kinks when i try bend it in

A wise person on this board once recommended a turkey baster:

That's what I plan on using the next time I empty the system.

I have a similar looking setup.
Bring your PC near a bathroom sink or a kitchen sink and take your pump out of the computer and just disconnect the hose connected to the pump intake. Make sure your t-line is un-capped. That's how I drain mine.

Turkey baster! That's what I use. I put the tip of it through the fill hole of my big a** res, then squeeze the bulb, pull it out, dump it and repeat. Takes FOREVER but it works without a big sloppy mess.

another good way is to dismount the waterblock from the cpu, and anything else mounted to the case and remove it from the case.
Are you using a reservior? If a bayrez it can be a royal pain to drain.
