 Hello, i was wondering if I could get some help. i have a 3090 kingpin that i want to install. If i planned to mount it vertically and the only way for it to look nice and not be cluttered by both 350 rad tubes would be to position the rad upside down (see ms paint diagram) would this cause air bubbles and shorten the lifespan of the rad or will this be okay? currently using a corsair 7000x rgb case. i usd paint to make the diagram and the lines are abit hard to see

 Looks like a fine plan to me.

thanks for replying, should there be a concern regarding air bubbles messing with the pump/radiator in this position?

Thats the optimal position. if youre worried about air bubbles, i would shake the GPU a bit down where the PSU is at, so all air bubbles go into the top of the radiator, before installing it into the MB.

Same. His plan should work too. Be sure the KPE is blowing out.

Tubings at the bottom of the rad while the top of the rad is above the pump/GPU. Looks good to me.  You could tilt the case back a little bit if the need arises but overall, you should be good to go.

Yup, but one piece of advise , you may not need it, but the pump in the AIO can be a pain to get the bubbles to clear, so you might was to lay the computer on its side and suspend the Rad with the tubes straight up, for the first fire up , wait until the card is silent and then go ahead and power down then mount the Radiator in its position you want, The Asetek AIO pump is not really all that strong.

another thing to consider
rotate the top radiator ... tubes in the back can give a cleaner look
do not bend the tubes, spiral "helical shape" to get the tubes to curve ... try turning the radiator in both directions to see which loos better

thank you very much to everyone that has responded. My last question is should these fans be intake ore exaust? my 240mm fans in the front are intake. the top 3 fans are exaust and the single back fan is exaust.

I think I would be tempted to try the bottom one or two as intake and the top one or two as exhaust.
