There's not enough information in your post for us to give you an answer.  Your post assumes that we know everything about your build, but we know nothing.  For instance: what is your "radiator"?

 

General rule of thumb for attaching radiators to cases: if it fits, it goes there.  Push, pull, or push/pull fan configurations are largely irrelevant for temperatures, use whichever one is easiest to install.

Well, you pretty much just have to figure out what fits, whether that means through measurements (if you don't have the Kraken yet) or by just plain shoving stuff in and testing. 

 

You can set your fans to be push, pull, or use four fans for push/pull. I'd take a look into these different configurations and see what people are saying performs the best in your chassis, or with the x61 in general.
