how bendable is hose?

[blair]

i have a problem i want to water cool but i need to make a U turn in the space of 10cm with 5/8" OD hose will it kink if i do this?

It may work at start,but as its heating up,it will kink in very short time,did the same,and i have too rebuild with some 45 and 90 degree fittings soon.

Recommend you do it right first time. Rebuilding the wc-loop later,is soo annoying.

Please look at my other thread: http://forum.overclock3d.net/index.php?/topic/36122-wc-a-cooler-master-enforcer/

how could i go from the rad to the cpu block and rad to res on my diagram as it has to come out the rad and go through the water cooling holes at the top of the enforcer case.

Thats my prop how can i do it?

i would need 2 on each side in the space for 10cm it isnt gonna fit and it would look really odd i might just get the 120m rad so i can mount internally.
