Not everyone is technical minded, glad he did a round two as most if not all manufacturers has it dead wrong
Even professional builders does not take the fluid flow into consideration some times

Professional build in the image below
DO NOT DO THIS with your CPU cooler, period

I had it for 3 months now, so I don't think there will be anything wrong... just yet.
I've seen those videos, but yea... I don't think it's that bad, the way we have it.
I've tried to mount my radiator in other places/directions, but to no avail - this was the only way to do it given the space and components used.
Only other option I see is going full custom loop, and I'm not willing to do that just yet.

Of course I have alarms if my temperatures get too high, so I think I'm safe.

Edit:
@plykkegaard LOL, that's a Komplett PC :D Yea, I buy my stuff exclusively at Komplett. But the offer of prebuilt PCs was horrible when I was in the market. Thus, I bought parts and built mine myself. (First build)

I understand that not everybody is technical minded @plykkegaard; but that air bubbles go up is something that anybody with money to purchase such computers has age enough to know. So, the explanation: don't let the bubbles go to the pump or the radiator entrances isn't that hard. Specially if the video is so long and repeated lots of times. Really, what demonstrated the need of the second GN video is the absolute lack of understanding on people. And yes, I know there could be a lot of viewers that don't understand English, but anyway... Is discouraging to see as time passes how people don't what to think on things they read, they just want the "fast food experience". So much damage Twitter has done...

And about companies releasing bad products... well, ASUS isn't immune to that and I bloodily know it by myself.

That's one of the reasons I'm not on that trend of the transparent cases where one could easily give too weight to the looks and end purchasing not so good parts. Old-school opaque case that at the same time allows me to have lateral vent AND sound shielding Although I've to give credit to that Lego stand for the graphic card; practicality and aesthetics in one, that's a win-win.

To my defense regarding the orientation of the AIO radiator - it was the only way of getting it to fit.
Before that GN video, I was sure that the AIO systems were bled properly when manufactured. At least, that's what I would expect from a closed-loop system like that. I guess I'm overly optimistic, LOL.

And yes... GN videos sometimes tend to go on and on... Should start with a TLDW sometimes. :D

I have to change my gaming wheel.Mine started glitching and it's not a game problem,since it's happening in both ETS 2 and ATS.

Thrustmaster Ferrari Red Legend.But hey,i was using physics mod.That could probably have left some traces,even after uninstalling the mod.I'm trying a new profile now,no mods.
EDIT : well,i feel like it was the mod that left some traces and glitched the steering wheel.

EDIT 2 : Tested on a clean profile,without adding the physics mod.Seems that the glitching isn't gone.
@Tarso The glitch i'm talking about : the wheel turns left itself,it's random and mostly happen when not driving.Sometimes,while driving,if i turn left,the steering will bump a little bit.Also sometimes,while not driving,the steering will glitch back and forth.I have to mention that sometimes,when i reach my keyboard,my arm tends to rest on the wheel.That might have broke something.Anyway,i think it's time that i buy a new wheel(not today,but at the end of the month).
When i mean the wheel is glitching,it's the ingame wheel,not the Thrustmaster.But still,i think there's something that might be broken.

Ryzen 5 3600X Upgraded to 5900X
Hyper 212 Evo CPU cooler
MSI X570S Tomahawk WiFi MAX (previous was a ASUS B450-F)
MSI 6750XT 12 GB to replace the Gigabyte 2060 Super Windforce (Had a horrible cooler that made awful noise.)
32 Gb @ 3200 Mhz
Samsung 970 Evo 500 Gb, Crucial MX500 500 Gb, and WD Black NV750 1 TB NVME
Corsair 650D Chassi
Seasonic Focus+ Gold 750W PSU
2 x LG 27GL650F 144 Hz 1080p IPS panels and my old ASUS 24" 1080p 60 Hz (I decided to stick to 1080p since I only game and I rather focus on a good IPS panel than 1440p or 4k, not worth it when money is limited, rather have 2 beautiful 1080p's)
Last thing I did was get the NVME and a new Windows 10 Home Full license. My OEM license was forced on my new mobo by MS support temporarily xD

This was a slow upgrade process, started early last year already, and got done a month ago

I now run ATS at 4k and 200% scaling and still get 75 - 100+ fps to get as sharp of an image as possible, it works well, I know I only have 1080p screens, but it does improve quality a bit,
its needed in these games so everything is readable in every truck
