So im about to put my new computer together. I bought the corsair h150i elite capellix and im curious what the best mounting location for it would be for it in my o11 dynamic case. Would it be better on the side as an intake, or at the top as an intake? How would you mount the fans? Stupid question i know, but its my 1st aio so im curious.

Ideally, top as an exhaust.  You don't wanna intake from the top as your fighting basic physics.  You also wan't your intake to stay as cold as possible and the  radiator will warm the air passing through it.  

 

The side of the fans where the blade attaches to the frame should face the radiator, the other side should be looking down into your case. (not my picture, just from google)
