Is it any better to place a radiator on the top area of ur case(blowing up and out the top)...or the front bottom? mabe even both?! thanks
 
uhh...i asked which of the 2 i listed would be better...not more options...lol
 
Sorry, I misread.

Lower front would give slightly lower temps as the radiator would receive cooler air than up top, but both work well.
 
You can have the top mounted rad sucking in cool air from outside, just like a front mounted one. Whichever works space wise is what should determine your placement. So long as you have fans suckiong cool outside air in, then temps will be good.
 
yeah what ill prolly do if have air being sucked in then duct the other end out so the hot air isnt coming in and affecting temps with stuff not being WCed
 
I like them better on the top because I have a lot of hard drives.

Instead of making all these thread with your questions you should search.
