Hey, i was just wondering does it matter which tube goes to the waterblock? Like on the tdx waterblock, the bottom one just has a barb then goes into the block, then like the top one has the barbs and then there is like rivets in the block? I'm just wondering if I should change the one from the radiator to the block to where the rivets one are and then the bottom one to the reservoir? If anyone understands this please let me know. Mike

The center one is "in" and the off-center one is "out".

![]() Can you see the "DD" engraved on the block? The barb nearest the "DD" is the inlet, the one furthest away is the outlet. In other words, the tube from your radiator goes to the inlet, the outlet goes wherever the outlet needs to go.

Mike, I believe it will make a difference. Mainly because you now have flow going in the correct order. The block, like most blocks, are designed to flow one-way, and if the flow isn't going in the correct way, then it slows the loop down a lot and will increase your temps. It does make a difference.
