I've read TONS about watercooling and know just about everything... but I can't figure out for sure how you attatch a hose. I want to make sure I'll do it right before I try it out... I'm getting my setup soon :D.

Can someone explain it?? Assume you have a waterblock and the hose. How is it done?

How does that work? I just want to make ABSOLUTELY sure I do it correctly... it's probably as simple as it looks like, but I want to be positive :D.

dont think hard ont his one...its like those questions "what color is this red block?"

just slide the hose over the nipples on the block...then put the hose clamps on there and tighten them...simple as that:)

Dude thats like "How do you go pee?"

The nipple comes out of the block. Slide the hose over it. Slide the Hose clamp over the hose. Position the Clamp in the middle of the nipple (Just make sure it's away from the block a little bit cause sometimes thers a flange). Tighten.

The avanced course will teach you to slide the clamp over the hose before sliding it on the nipple. This saves time.

I don't mean to make fun. Great idea about asking. No such think as a bad question.

Thanks :). I know it's a very basic question, but this is my first time ever actually attatching anything like it, so I figured there's no harm in making sure :).
