    question with regards to fan placement on radiator

    Would having fans stacked on one side, taking 2x (120x120x25) fans be as beneficial as having them in push/pull configuration?

    This is assuming they are sealed together airtight giving basically a 120x120x50 fan.

    Well.. from what I have read..

    There is little to no benefit in having fans on each side, just extra noise.
    Also depends on you rad.

    are you suggesting a rad-fan-fan setup?
    if so, then i think no is the answer
    why not get a 38mm fan instead...

    i don't happen to have enough 38mm fans for all three spots not that mixing and matching would make any sort of difference other than aesthetically
