I was going to post in the air cooling section, but considering the last post was an hour ago; I assumed that no one was on that sub forum.

 

 

Now, I have two Noctua A-14 ULN 140mm fans which I am designating to my Nepton 280L when it comes back from an RMA request. Would it work if I take one of the JetFlo fans and put it right in front of the rad as a pull? Or would it be better to have it as a push?

Even if you dump the thread here, it'll get moved regardless.

Play around with it I suppose, experiment with temperatures.

Are you referring to push/pull?

Sorry about that, I wasn't exactly sure if anyone would have responded.

 

And not exactly, what I want to do is have the noctua fans as a push for the rad (because my case is unable to do a pull config) and then have another fan which sits right infront of the radiator, almost like it was a 420mm radiator except there would be no radiator on the third fan. I just don't know if it would work better to push air out of the case with the third fan, or pull air in

That would depend on the case and layout of other components.

It would help to list your specs.

Do you have any other fans that you haven't already mentioned?

Only the stock fans on the back and front of the case.

Rear/front are stock fans. Fan behind the hdd cage is the Jetflo. NF-A14's and rad at top.
