I'm planning a build for the future that I'm really looking forward too. It has A 970, I'm using a corsair C70 case, its gonna be great. But one thing that my puny mind is to feeble to understand is how to set-up a Radiator for a AIO CPU Cooler. I would put it at the top of the c70 but I'm not sure if i should put the radiator on top and then the fans and what side the fans should be facing etc. I know linus said a couple years back to use Pull so ill probably go with that but i have never really been able to understand what goes where for such a system. Any insights, images would be cool.

no, its just neutral

there is no performance difference

if you put the fans on one side, its easier to clean the radiator

if you put the fans on the other side, you can see the fans and it looks nicer

do what you want

As cold as push or pull will make your loop :)

Unless you have the fans like this:

-><-

Blowing towards each other it really doesn't impact temps.

Alright, im not really looking for a what to do but how to do, i mean if i wanted to be able to see the fans and pull air in from outside which side of the fans should be facing the bottom. Does that make sense, pulling air through the top throught the raidiator? I really dont know.
