[SOLVED] Did I do it?

So yesterday I put a h60 aio in my pc. I mounted it as exhaust with the fan and the radiator mounted second.I plugged the pump into the cpu fan and the fan into Sys fan 1 and so far when my radiator fan is at full speed it idles still around 30c. Is this normal here’s the pc:

Temp seems normal to me.

fan shouldnt be behind radiator if its exhaust, it has to push air through fins

Depends on the processor used and you need to check the temps under load.

EDIT also as above the fan should be on the other side of the rad pushing air through it.

Ok so what I will do is move the fan to the other side alright. Thank you I will do this all when I get home thanks for the help guys. I’ll get back with the temp under load. See if that improves idle temp thanks and I’ll get back! I have a ryzen 5 3600
I put an h60 on it.

What's wrong with the fan pulling air through the rad and out the chassis?

Nothing I just did it as pushing out

Your idle temp is plenty fine and is probably not far from ambient.
I wouldn't expect it to go much lower.
100% load temp is what you want.

My question wasn't aimed at you directly, but the couple of individuals that just shot it down.

There's little difference between push or pull if you do your own testing. Pull has a slight edge over push in that it avoids some of the air blowback off the radiator fins if the fans are used as push.
Neither is perfect, or absolutely better than the other.

I see no problem.

CPU cooling starts at ambient. Normally, that is around 22c. or 72f.
30c. suggests to me that your measurement tool may not be accurate.
I would expect temperatures at idle to be more like 15c. over ambient.

What really counts is how you do under heavy load.
Do make certain that your front intakes are strong enough to feed the H60 as well as your graphics card,
