Hi Guy's, Pretty new to building PC's and I'm taking on a complete build with all the parts trickling in. Watched so many video's of how to put it together I see them In my sleep lol. The one thing I cant seem to find is a video of how to mount the water cooler with fans in pull/exhaust. Its pretty straight forward to mount the fans to water cooler and screw radiator into top with fans in push exhaust. I know the kit comes with slightly longer screws but it shows to use them if I am mounting fans on outside of case in push/pull. Could or should still use those same slightly longer screws as I am guessing its same distance whether I'm screwing fans from outside of case into rad or through case/fans/rad. but either way figured I would ask and hopefully someone a lot more experienced then me could shed some light onto this for me if this will work. I have a feeling I really over thinking this but want to be sure.

 

 Thanks for all the help.

you will need to buy a second set of long screws to add pull fans between the radiator and case

I only saw 2 sets of screws. But the Nepton 280L actually comes with a longer set of screw already. It has the basic length for putting the in push than tiny little screws for the rad. Than has an additional set of screws slightly longer to screw fans in from outside of case.

 

Heres a link if click on Manual you will see the longer screws
