I am very new to liquid cooling and just completed my first liquid build last night. No leaks found after sitting overnight but I have a few questions on some possible problems. One tube coming from top rad to gpu is filling with water but there is a 4 inch gap of nothing between where the rad is to the water level in the tube. Water is trickling down the tube but never fully filling. My guess is air bubble? Tried rocking the case, res is full. Any feedback would be helpful because im assuming the water im hearing run in my front rad is air related as well. Thanks for the help!

Is there a possibility to share some images of your loop configuration? Based on what you described, it seems like an air pocket. How much space is the case occupying? You might need to try different angles to figure it out.

Did you allow some extra air to leave through the vent when you completed the loop?
