Quick question.

I'm going to be watercooled tonight and have an installation question.
I have a 120mm radiator. I'm going to install it on the back 120mm fan. Is it better to install it inside the case with the fan mounted on it or outside the case with the rear fan inside?

Depending on the rad it could be better to have air suckign through it or being pused through.

If you let me know the model number I will tell u which would be best.

other than the aformentioned item, just set it up whatever way is easiest for you.
