Q&A

Does flipping the radiator change the position of the pump in the loop?

No, flipping the radiator does not change the position of the pump in the loop. The pump remains in the same location regardless of radiator orientation.

Are cavitation concerns relevant for AIO or CLC coolers?

No, cavitation is not a concern in AIO or CLC coolers. These coolers are not powerful enough to cause cavitation.

Do custom loops and radiator orientation affect the risk of cavitation?

No, custom loops and radiator orientation do not affect the risk of cavitation. Cavitation is not a common issue in computer liquid cooling systems.

Why is it important to clarify misconceptions about cooler orientation?

Misconceptions about cooler orientation can lead to unnecessary panic and confusion among users. Providing accurate information helps educate and inform viewers.

What should viewers focus on when considering cooler orientation?

When considering cooler orientation, it is important to prioritize factors such as thermal performance and proper tubing installation, rather than concerns about cavitation.
