I have the Fractal Design Node 804 which is a split design case where the PSU and hard disks are separated from the main components. I'm trying to decide where to put my radiator in this build.

The case offers countless positions for radiators and fans but I need to keep the top position on PSU side open for my hard disks. Three options presented below 

 

 I could run the 240mm kraken in intake position on the case front on the PSU side.

 

Or as exhaust on the gpu side case top.

 

Alternatively I could as a last resort remove the trays and mount just one to the PSU floor and put the radiator at top exhaust position on PSU side.

 

Suggestions are appreciated.
