Ok so I FINALLY got my inline setup primed last night. This was beyond frustrating. During the process I almost picked up a hammer and destroyed everything in the computer. But I didn't.
Anyway, the pump is primed, almost all of the air is out. There is just a VERY LITTLE bit in there, but I'm not going to worry about it.
However, I let the pump run for about 4 hours straight just to see if anything would leak. Nothing leaked, but I noticed that the pump had heated up a good bit. Since none of the fans for the rad were on or anything, I also noticed that the waterblock and rad had heated up from the heat the pump added to the system.
Is this normal? It's a good 10 degrees F(maybe more) warmer than the air. I was wondering if this is possibly because of the very very very tiny ammount of air in the system?
I just want to be reassured that the pump is not going to burn up or something. I'm ok with a slight performace loss due to the air in the system, but I'm not ok with my pump exploding and taking everything with it.
I appreciate any help offered.
