if your res is sealed and unmovable you can turn your computer upside down and put a big bowl full of coolant ontop of the case. Its kind of a pain in the butt as you will need extra tubing in order to put both ends in the bowl then when the loop is air free you will need to connect the circuit and you will either have excess tubing or you will have to do some crafty cutting. Its really hard to bleed/fill a system that has a rad as the highest point. Ohh if your pump isnt self priming its fun getting the coolant flowing too.

Or instead of the bowl you can move your res above the radiator while filling/bleeding. This is the way I would do it if I had the option.
