Hey I was wondering what a good placement for a 120 mm rad in a Rosewill blackhawk case. Im planning on getting a pump/res in one that will be mounted in my 2 5.25 drive bays so I just need to know the optimal place for cooling the rad. I plan on water cooling the CPU (3570K) right now and adding a block for my Radeon 7870 at some point
 
You can put it the the top or the back of the case, wont make much of a difference either way. I would have it at the top just because its a bit out of the way , easier to see the system through the case window.

Also, if you intend to have a 7870 and 3570k in the same loop, you will need more than 120mm of rad space. I advise you get a dual rad off the bat (Your case supports it at the top).
