im looking at the swiftech h20 220 kit

dual 120mm rad, 650 pump etc

when it says the pump needs to be primed, does that mean water in the res filling the tube going to the intake so water is ready to go soon as its turned on? i know some pumps need to be run through their cycle by hand to prime them before power

also, since the res isnt that big on the kit, should i fill the res, and rad with fluid for startup? im assuming the air will work itself out in the resivoir?

anything else i should know.. i plan on builing the kit in an external box cooling only the cpu

heres the kit im referring to

priming the pump just mean making sure there is water there to get sucked into.
i myself do not fill the radiator with water before i try to install it but if thats what you want to do then that fine i have mine on top of my case so a leak would pour alover my system.
