Yeah that's fine.

 

EDIT: Question actually: Why do you have an exhaust and intake on the top of the case? You'd be better off having them both in the same orientation to keep a smooth flow of air. Generally, having them as exhaust is the best setup so air comes in from the front of the case and exits through the back and top.

That looks like a good mount. As long as you have fans pushing air through the radiator, it is all good!

I wouldn't listen to him. The way you have it mounted is fine.

The most important thing you need to watch out for is, that one point in the rad is higher than the pump. Tube orientation is a secondary option. 

 

And well... dont listen to sole random shit on the internet if 2 big youtubers made a  vid about something of which is very indepth 

Ping me or quote me in replys ples. Anyone talking about AiOs and trashing people for a front mount watch THIS JAYZTWOCENTS VID because u 99.9% skipped or didnt understand the Gamers Nexus vid...

At least move that top intake to as front as you can. Now its probably pushing in air that gets exhausted by the fan next to it.

I would run that setup. That intake at the top is cooling your ram, everyone likes cool ram 🙂

Not to mention having three intake and two exhaust ensures partial positive pressure which helps keep dust out. In order to keep the positive pressure when changing both top fans to exhaust, OP would have to make the rear fan intake, which would again be bad for dust as the rear fan slot doesn't have a dust filter (I'm assuming the top and front intake does have a filter). I have my fans set up the same way for that reason.

I mostly speak from my own past experience from similar problems. My solution may not work for you, but I'll always try my best to help as much as I can. If you want me to see your reply, make sure to quote my comment or mention me @WaggishOhio383, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

I am all about positive pressure 🙂 

 

Cant escape the dust though, so sweep your floor and vacuum your carpet 😄
