Hi all,

I'm running into a dilemma.

My CoolerMaster MasterLiquid ML240R RGB manual is telling me to place my fans in front of the radiator like this:



But some reviews on the internet have them placed behind the radiator like so:




Which is correct?

Seeing as they are RGB and feature lights it doesn't make sense to place them behind the radiator.

Can someone help a noob, I haven't built a PC in 10 years and I'm making dumb mistakes.

The build is a:

Asus X Apex
8700K
CoolerMaster MasterLiquid ML240R RGB
G.Skill Trident Z 2x8gb 3200mhz 14's
WD Black 1TB NVMe Dimm.2
NZXT S340 Elite

I have tested both way's and to be honest I did not see any difference, so go for front and pull air in to case and exhaust out back and top if you can.79069
