I have remodded my water cooling system so the radiator is on top. I have the Radiator that fits on 120mm fan with 4 passes. Anyways I made a hole on top but when I put fan+radiator there the noise is SO loud. I tried every possible combination. I tried fan blowing out of case getting air from radiator, blowing at radiator, blowing at radiator into case, now I have it blowing out of case getting air from radiator and with spaces like 1cm thick. This thing is louder than Alpha PEP66 w/ 38CFM fan, and I bought water cooling mainly to keep my case as quite as possible... I'm so annoyed now.
Before I had the hole on top I temporary had the radiator + fan inside the case near resevoir, but I redid the tubing now to put radiator at top...

Please suggest something...
