Looking for ideas on cooler placement on an corsair 570x

Recently I bought a Corsair 570x and a Corsair H100i

I am planning on installing low profile ram so based off of build suggestions the radiator will fit at the top. As shown here.

But I have heard that blowing hot air out of your case over the radiator is a bad idea and should be avoided. [video="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNAMxZgvves"][/video]

So should the top radiator be a "pull system" in addition to the fan in the front being a "pull system" and add an extra fan in the back to exhaust the air?

or should the radiator be mounted behind 2 of the front 3 fans like this. (This is a 460, but the same fans in the front)

If I mount it in the front what would I do with the stock fans and the fans that come with the radiator? Ie. Do I just keep the stock fans in place and have them blow into the radiator and then put the two radiator fans on the top and have them blow out? If so will there be any issue with the fans being blowing at the proper rpm for my cpu?

Any advise is appreciated.

I am doing a very similar build though all I have so far is my corsair 650d airflow case and hv100 v2. I am planning to have front fans and top radiator blowing into the case, and back fans blowing out. Though we have different cases I think the same logic would work. Creating a positive pressure in the case with semi unidirectional airflow has worked for me in the past.

I would not put stock fans blowing into radiator

In short
So should the top radiator be a "pull system" in addition to the fan in the front being a "pull system" and add an extra fan in the back to exhaust the air?
