I can't for the life of me get the remain air out of my system.
My system is T-Line-AquaExtreme Pump-Rad-WhiteWater Block-T-Line.
I can see this stream of bubbles that will not get caught by the t-line. Any thoughts?
 
Is a reservoir an option? I have used one on all my water cooling systems, and have yet to have any problems. They are, (I think), the easiest way to fill and bleed a system.
 
I would rather save the 25$, but if it comes to that I may do that. I would like to see what other people say. With my case a bay res is the only option, but I don't like the look of it.
 
thanks for the response, but I fixed it, the fittings on my rad, were just loose enough to let air in, but not leak. Unfortunately I think the order of my parts is wrong but my temps are okay 43idle. at 2.2 on a 2600mobile. Case temp 27. doesn't bother me. Would like better but whatever. Thanks all.
 
though you may not want to add the restriction, you could modify how your loop uses the t line....

please excuse my poor ascii skills:

this is probably how you have it setup now.

setting it like this could make a psuedo-airtrap at the expense of flow loss on the 90 degree turn
