Front mounted my H105

[Frankz]

After having my H105 top mounted for nearly 2 years I decided to put it in the front of the case in an attempt to reduce the noise I hear(coming from the fans at the top), as the top of the case is at ear height & the case is at like 50cm from where I'm sitting. Now I have 3 concerns/questions.

 

1. Air bubbles, Should I be worried about air bubbles ending up in the pump? Since the pump is now the highest point in this closed loop?

 

2. I have it setup as push/pull, with 2 different types of fans. Would they negatively impact eachother? By that I mean having less push than pull "force"? Is it bad to have that?

 

3. Currently there's 4 fans pulling air in, and only 1 exhaust at the back. Would I really need to add another exhaust fan? My case is a Corsair 750D with a large opening at the top for air to pass through

 

Thx!

Radiator dosen't need to be higher than the pump one of my radiator is below and it didn't die yet.

The only thing that matters is that the res feed the pump

I've front mounted a h105 before and ran it 24/7 for a year and it still didn't die. It's very quiet and haven't had an issue at all.
