I need to know how should l place my 2 fans and the liquid cooler.
So the case originally has an intake from the front and the other fan is going out the back. I bought the master liquid 240 and only place it fits is the side panel. Should the air be directed in or out of the side? The 2 extra fans i bought can go in the front (which will probably be an intake), and the top(probably outflow, right?).
To make it clearer im just gonna say. There's a total of 4 fans (1 back, 1 top, 2 front) and the space on the side for the liquid cooler fans.
 
Solution
The info i could find about the case that involves cooling.

Ventilation system:

Front: 1 x 120 mm Blue LED (included)
Rear: 1 x 120 mm (included)
Front: 1 x 120 mm (not included)
Side: 2 x 120 mm or 1 x 200 mm (not included)
Upper: 1 x 120 mm (not included)

including this: Space for the installation of a 120 mm radiator.

Lets say that you put the radiator on the side panel i guess it will interfere with the graphics card and if you try to put it in the front where the case seems to fit 2x 120 mm fans then you probably will loose the hard drive cage. This is only guessing from my point of view so i cant tell exactly how much space there is inside.

I guess that the Manufacturer of the case knows what to fit inside and the info says...

What case are you using?

I have never heard of someone that puts a radiator to the side panel. Normally you mount a 240 mm rad in the front of the case or at the top of the case.

Hi, thank you for replying!
I'm using NOX NXCBAYSX,
I know it's a cheap one but it's what my budget allowed me. Do you think it would even fit? The motherboard hasn't arrived yet so i can't really test anything

I guess that the Manufacturer of the case knows what to fit inside and the info says only one 120 mm radiator. So if you are worried it might not fit then you should probably go with some other CPU cooler.
