Radiator positioning

[Mikealongo]

Hello!

I don't know where to post it, but here we go haha.

I wonder if I can have a "optimal" positioning for my fans and radiator, I want to have the pc running the cooler, quite and cool ? as possible. 

Right now I have this setup:

760T case from corsair

1 140 mm Corsair led fan exhaust at the rear

2 140 mm Corsair led fan intake at the front

1 H115i with a push pull configuration at the top, with 2 140 mm Corsair sp led fans at the bottom pushing and 2 140 mm Corsair sp non led fans pulling through the radiator

980 Strix (open GPU)

PSU facing down

 

I saw a video where changing the radiator to the front acting like an intake decrease the cpu temp like 10 degrees while not changing the Gpu temp.

I want to know what is the best configuration for me.

Thanks

I use this configuration and it works like a charm.

Apparently, you get better CPU cooling with the radiator in front but this adds more heat to your case increasing your video card temps a bit. 

 

I'm sure if you have ample airflow, this isn't a big issue though. If you want to put the radiator in the front, go for it. Maybe just install some case fans at the top too though. They don't have to be expensive. Something like the corsair af140s would be good for that. Get some nice looking LED ones to make your PC even cooler. Don't use those for the radiator though. You need static pressure fans for that of course.
