H100i GTX

I recently got my h100i gtx and I mounted it at the top of my H440 as an intake, I am worried that I would have to do more maintenance as the top does not have a filter. Would it be better to mount it at the front in a push/pull config or leave it at the top with the fans in-taking air?

if its on the top it should always be exhaust

on the front as an intake it would get better temps and also make less noise

 

if you can, put it on the front

As others have already it pointed out.

 

If it's mounted on the top, exhaust.

If it's mounted on the front, intake.

 

Mounting it at the front as intake will be better for performance.
