I checked your setup and noticed a few issues. After turning on the Liquid Freezer II with the tubes at the bottom, air bubbles stuck in the CPU block. Removing the radiator from the case cleared some air, but after reinserting it firmly and powering up again, bubbles returned. It seems you might be making mistakes or rushing the process. Running the AiO for a while could help release trapped air. Let me know if you need more guidance.

Adjust the position so the air escapes into the radiator rather than the pump. Keep in mind that the CPU should never sit at the top of the AIO—air naturally moves upward.

I'd reverse the assumption that the tubes are down, which might cause those bubbles.

Yes, you should reverse the rad. The guide suggests using AIO with tubes at the bottom for proper setup.

Check your setup—your hoses are placed in the middle and bottom of the block. The outlet should be at the top, not the bottom. This won’t work properly because air naturally rises in water. You need to flip how the block is mounted so air can escape and coolant can fill it fully. Right now, you’re just trapping an air space that stays, preventing proper heat transfer and coolant movement.

It’s not the focus on the tubes, but rather on what beerzerker mentioned.

Ensure the block's connection is positioned correctly above the inlet and as high as possible. When air enters the tubing, water flow will move it along to its destination.

You might want to reverse the orientation or adjust how it's positioned since the current setup isn't fitting your requirements.
