Mounting Antech Kuhler Radiator Upside Down?

[richardisaac]

Hi Guys,
I've ordered the Antec Kuhler H2O 620 Liquid Cooling System from newegg to replace my CPU cooler.

I don't have the room to attach the radiator to my back panel, so I'd like to cut out a square hole in the top of my case where my top exhaust fan is, attach the radiator underneath the hole, facing upwards, and attach the Scythe DFS123812-3000 "ULTRA KAZE" 120 x 38 mm Case Fan underneath below the radiator moving air through the radiator and out of the top of the case case.

Do you guys think that placing the cooler upside down will interfere with water flow?
Also, will the radiator be too heavy for my top panel?

-Isaac

DON'T TIGHTEN THE SCREWS TOO TIGHT ON THE
FRONT MOUNT! The mount has to be loose so that
the cold plate assembly can fit underneath it, THEN
when the screws are tightened it pulls into place.
