No air in tubing. Res is trapping air properly at the top of loop.
I'm currently using a table top / open case currently until problems are fixed.
Pump & Block on same level. Rad slightly above, and res at top. I'll take pics of the setup tonight, but there's really nothing special to see. Typical laid out parts, tubing, wires, etc.

Lets see, coolant is cool but the block has high idle temps. That means mostly likely culprit is the mounting between cpu to the waterblock.
That would be the reason why you would get such high idle temps because heat is not being transfer to the block into the coolant. I would remount the waterblock and be very specific in how you mount it. Have your computer run for awhile and see if the water block gets hot by touching it. If it is cool then you have mounting issues.
If the block feels very warm or hot, then the pump isn't corretly working.
