Hey guys, I'm installing a replacement Astek unit that DS sent me today and I have a quick question. The radiator was attached to the rear exhaust fan on the HAF 932 with the original unit. Should I keep that set up, or should I set the radiator up on its own with out the fan and just let the fan be the exhaust for the entire case? I just don't want to jack anything up with this unit so if its better to keep the set up it came with let me know. Thanks for any help in advance.

I recommend just replacing it and doing what we had setup for you at our facility.

Will set up exactly the same, just curious but since the man aka Alex says it will be so.

the rad gets cooled by a fan, in this case it was the exhaust fan, so if you don't put it over your exhaust fan, then the temps will go up case the rad will not be able to get rid of heat.
