kvnwds43 · 12 Jul 2014 at 14:22

hi guys ive just bought a new nzxt phantom 820 and a corsair hydro 110 cooler,whats the best way of installing it ? will i get away with leaving the nzxt top cooler fan in and mounting the radiator with the supplied corsair fans underneath in the case then using it as a push n pull configuration pulling air out of the case ?
or turn the supplied nzxt fan around drawing air in to the case with the corsair fans pulling air in ? which is the best way ? im new to a cpu water-cooler like the hydro ive always used a cpu fan like the prolimatech megahelems , thanks in advance

You can't mix fans in push pull

All AIO/Rads should be really be exhausts why would you want to push hot air in into you case?

Just remove the nzxt fans and mount them on the HDD cages if possible pulling more cold air into you case

its ok scots ive seen a couple of videos on youtube and people have actually had theirs set up with cae fans pulling air in to the rad and the corsair fans undernath pulling in ! i thought it was strange so i thought id ask the question before i started the build
