I am adding a water cooling unit to a pc I am building using the Cooler Master Storm Trooper, I am stuck as to where I should put the radiator and cooling fans for the water cooling, I have the choice between the Corsair Hydro Series H90 or H100i or H110. I can put the H100i or the H110 on the top of the case but this then only leaves one exhaust fan, would this be a big issue or is it not too big a deal? I have the same issue with the H90 I can place it on the top I could also fit another fan next to it so would that be worth having an exhaust next to it or would that then make having the H90 next to it useless because of it sucking out heat? as you can tell I'm new to this but I was wondering if I could get some second opinions on this? Thank you.

Ideally you want to pull/push cold air onto the radiator, however using a radiator as an exhaust is not the end of the world, it certainly wont be next to useless.

You can always try it as an exhaust first and if you aren't happy with the temps, you can flip the fans over.
