Hello. where should i install my H60 Cooler to my NZXT Phantom Full Tower?

 

Here is the fan layout:
1 x 120mm Rear Fan
2 x 120mm Side Fans
1 x 120mm Front Fan
2 x 200mm Top LED Fan

 

where should I place the radiator and how should my airflow go?

 

Thanks for the help friends :)

Radiator as rear exhaust usually causes least clearance issues, but since it sounds like you have every single fan spot populated, your airflow will be mostly unaffected no matter where you put it 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Can confirm. My old build used to have the RAD in the back before I updated it (Had to switch to an air cooler when I switched cases)

Ideally OP has oriented the top fan to be exhaust, lest the case have turbulent air inside
