I know very little about these things (why do I need pretty lights in my computer? My GPU has a big, useless white light that I wish I could turn off) but one thing I THINK I know is that that's installed the wrong way around, no? Shouldn't the pump be on top? So that any air bubbles don't gather at whatever you're cooling?
Have you tried OpenRGB? It may not support your specific GPU but it's worth checking.
I have, it doesn't, but thank you.
Air bubbles rise in liquid, so the pump needs to be below the reservoir to avoid bubbles.
~~Wait, but that's what I'm asking. Why are bubbles at the pump not okay? Don't I want no air at all the other end for ideal cooling?~~
Edit: I misunderstood this entire setup. Disregard me, thank you for your efforts to explain stuff to sleep deprived me.
