Please help with bleeding

So I moved some parts and put return from cpu to bottom side of res for better bleeding.

I have big problems, first there I can barely fill the res over the top of res as funnel has huge leak, so this is not a problem when pump is running,

however when pump is turn off the water push to funnel leak and all over PSU and little bit on GPU.

sometimes when pump is running air gets inside reservoire and the water goes to funnel even when pump is running, only solution is to tilt case and let water fall to floor otherwise PSU and computer get totaly wet.

So now I have sealed top of reservoir and remove tube + funnel, but now air not get out?!

So I need to keep the funnel and tube and let the pump run, however there is guarantee to be alot of leak and papertowel to use.

Also I have big problem, if I turn pump off then the water push out over PSU as there is bad leak on funnel, so then there is so much air that the water gets pushed to funnel and then power supplie get alot of water on it and the fan is on top so it is not good

I now have sealed where tube and funnel was, but judging from my understanding does not work as air can't get out?

Also I have made slightly adjustment to my system as of below picture:



edit--> so even if top tube has no water during bleeding it gets full of water and start leaking over PSU when air goes to res I assume.
 
seal it all up let it run while doing so then tilt it about wiggle it force the air to the rez it should start showing air in the rez after awhile. eventually the system will balance out and force the air to the rez and not overflow it. sounds like abig pocket is stuck somewhere force it out when you shut off pump.

So when the air is forced to the reservoir should I open it and fill more water to replace the air, or will the air stay in reservoir so I don't need to open it any more?
 
once its all bled and balanced out the air should remain in the rez. And partial topping of is ok say like 1-2cm from top.did you get the psu dried out??

Would you mean that 1-2cm air in top of res is ok, I have bad funnel for filling so I would rather not open up res anymore as it's sealed right now.

Also there are no airbubbles in loop anymore only in res as it has been running all day the pump.

There was some water that hit the back of PSU where there where som cables attached and the holes for PSU, I have not dried but it was not insane amounf water, maybe I'll have couple of case fans blowing on psu before startup.

The pump makes alot less noise but is not silent, maybe this is because I do not have proper noise dampening yet for pump.

For future once I order gpu block I need make sure to order something good and easy solution for filling/bleeding as my current funnel tube is wery bad as also difficult to install and remove from res..

yup its ok to have air in the rez. Most if not all have some air in the rez its completely normal. plus practically impossible to get all the air out of a rez plus you'll note when you shut off pump the lvl rises just a tad. again normal for it to do so

Also there are no airbubbles in loop anymore only in res as it has been running all day the pump.

Great we finally got there

just be careful mate yeah some fans blowing on it will help as long as it didnt get inside where the fans dont hit it. But if that was the case your having it on while bleeding should of shown that.

I dont recall is it the vario model?? can you adjust the speed of the pump?? if so turn it down and see if that helps for that small of a loop I doubt you need full bore speed.

can you hold the rez in your hand outside the case?? from the pics it appears you can which can make filling alot easier. Just take off cap and pour while holding it.

It is D5 and has speed switch 1-5 so I think it is vario model?

It is used and the red knob is not there but a screwdriver I can adjust speed inside the pump.

The strange thing is there is irritating noise at low speed, almost like it is vibrating on case making all case sound horrible. Maybe it is not strong enough to pust though water at low speeds.

Also the tubes are a bit tight, I'm sure I can take out res but the 2 plastic holders I have wery difficult tighten with allen key as it is almost no space even for the tiny allen key so I would rather not move res alot so the plastic holders don't loosen because it is difficult to tighten with allen key.

Also the 45 degree on res going to pump is actually bending downwards, I can show picture later, a bit worried this starts to leak with time

yup thats the vario model try abut 2-3 or in between those. thats where mine is set but mainly because of cavitation in my bay rez you may have a defective pump next time you have it apart take it apart (just an oring inside it) and see whats up. it shouldnt be very noisey but mounted on case floor I bet it does have some vibration to it. I know mine did when i first powered it to check if it worked.with just a loop of tubing and distilled water it vibrated good on my desk lol.

Finally with the help of youre good advice and overclock3d I'm able to have low noise and first ever watercooling

The noise was thankfully false alarm, the noise came actually from outside my home, I ended up putting the pump to level 1 and it make so little noise I almost think it does not run.

Benching gives similar temperatures as high end air but this I think is because I run 240 rad with low rpm scythe gentle typhoons and pump on level 1.
