Is it bad to have the COU Cooler Mountet like that that the inlet and outlet of my aio are both on the top? because aswell as i see al have it mountet like that the inlet and outlet are on the right side (out top in bottom) but it worked fine for me I get with my 360mm loop (silent loop) and my i7-8700K max temps of 85 C (spikes to maybe 92 C) in different stress tests. With the Bios 0805 and the test were older dunno waht it is now with the new bios 1002.

2.Picture Search of Google Search Liquid Cooler Mounted 

 

Well by searching on Google i saw others have it mounted the same way as i have.

360mm AIO and 92c? Something isn't right.

I thought at first too and rn my voltage is at 1.36 V on the CPU CPU load line calibration is at level 5 or 6 and the max power ist at 140%. Rad is mounted to blow out Air at the out of the top of my dark base 900. But is the voltage to high? Or should i bring the PC to a shop and they might look at it? Thr pump should be on (atleast its on the header (aio header)) and i hear no noise of the rad like there would be air in it. But i also have very high spikes in idle maybe from 32 C to 54 C and back and i dunno why.

the way you have it mounted is fine, it doesn't really matter

 

as for your temps, yes they are high but i had the same temps on a 360mm radiator, i delidded my chip and dropped 23C on average and that fixed the issue.

you could try to remount the block with new thermal paste.

Well my bracket that holds the metall plate that holds the screw is broken, i dont know if mountig it then again is that easy and im fine with the temps. Do you know where to buy the brackets only? I might not buy one but if I want to some time i know where to search. And imma not delidd my CPU atleast not yet (would be my first time) cause if i destroy the cpu imma get in trouble with my parents. Cause i "sweared" to buy no more pc stuff except of better/ more RAM where i have in mind the 32GB G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16 Quad Kit. And because i already payed for my PC over 2000€.

And as far for the temps the average temps there are about the 82 C the 92°C are just the temp spikes and i could also try to get the voltage down to 1.35 V . And the 82 C are also the highest "normal" temps even in the stress test it sometimes were under 100%  load but on 74 C to sometimes even 69 C or a few lower so i think thats fine with 1.36 V and 5Ghz. And that was in an 1 Hour test. And i momitored the temps with HW-Momitor.
