mounting questions

[Gentlekatt]

Hello, guys i concider to buy AIO liquid cooling and now im wondering do i mount fans pull or push side on radiator and should i mount radiator fans up and radiator down or radiator up and fans down ( i will be mounting it on top of the case)?

I'd say radiator up & fans down with push .. but it's your call , either way it cool

but it will be harder to clean while radiator down you can just wacuum clean it fastly without unistalling

AIO 's are a pain to clean either ways, that's how dust behaves i guess, but the fans catch dust on their leaves occasionally meaning the radiator can be a tad bit cleaner(like you see in long used case fans), but you're right that does a bit more efficient..it's your call tho, will it look good in your case? especially if it has LED's.

personally nope , i don't have one because of " reasons* ", but one of the builds i did for a relative i did it on both sides it was bulked up but they didn't care for the looks the fans had to be set outside the case where it was visible but it was as the same as the others i guess, didn't switch the flow to check tho...haven't seen the radiators since it was about 1.5 years ago , so not sure if it's as dusty as you said it could be..but they haven't complained yet still. so that's a good sign..
