Where would be best for my T-Line, A or B? A is directly after the pump however it would look better and uses less tubing.

I think B aswell, although i am more of a looks person - it may not be the best in terms of the cycle performance.

I built a very similar loop and had mine at B. But it would easier, to fill/bleed at A.
Also turn the Rad around? You don't wan't the barbs that end, makes it looks messy.

I'd pefer to put it at A but will it kill much flow being directly after my pump or not really make much difference? I've never used a t-line before, as long as I have the fillport above every other part filling and bleeding should be fine right?

Welcome to the forums weescott.
I'd put it at B as it will barely make a difference to flow and how many times to you expect to be refilling it? You might as well go for the tidy option.

Fair comment, as idealy the watercooling should be built outside of the case in the first place for leak testing thus making the ease of filling arguement a non starter.
It's only for those of us that have overly complicated watercooling loops where we have to build the loop in the case where the T-line position makes a big difference.
/goes off to re-design overly complicated watercooling loop.

when i did my first sytem i was planning on having the loop just before the intake of the pump, that way any air could be bled before reaching the pump and making loads of noise...
now tho i would have it at the highest point in the system so it would natuarally bleed teh system
i now have my reservoir mounted on the top of my case just above the psu and the rad mounted at the underside of the top of the case

The fillport will always be at the highest point, it will just take more tubing if I put it before the pump and won't look as neat. However it should mean its a bit easier to bleed that way.
