I'm starting my build upgrade soon and got a refurbished h100i, air 540 and few noctua nf-f12 fans(sexy black). And I know this question might be getting old to some people and I watched linus and several other videos about this question but which configuration should I go for?

I would go for push, no genuine reason though, other than that you get to see your sexy fans. I have the same NF-F12 iPPC 2000 PWMs as well :D

Kinda depends where you're gonna mount it. Top or front?

In most cases I would go with pull just since it's easier to clean out any dust buildup.

Lotta people say I should have my rad as intake from the front of air 540 and the rest of the case(top and back) as exhaust. Sounds about right?

If you can, yes.

Just do push or pull, whatever is easier it doesn't really matter it won't affect temps, and push pull is pointless on a h100i
