which way to install my hyper TX3 EVO. fan to the left/right doesn't seem possible with what I've got to fit the cooler with.

Airflow should be intake from right fans, exhaust from singular left fan. No fan on top as i believe it messes with airflow.

edit, I'm 99% sure I have the fans on the right for intake. I've done a test with paper and all seemed okay with intakes/exhaust fan(s)

Due to the mounting hardware provided with the cooler and the mounting bracket on the CPU socket, the cooler would have to be oriented from bottom to top, with the fan pushing air towards the top of the case. If you didn't know, there are two arrows on the side of the fan's exterior(housing) to show the direction in which the fan blades will rotate and the direction in which the air will flow.

Intake from the frot, exhaust out the back is normal.
If you can't fit it exhausting out the back try exhausting up. In that case just move the rear case fan to the top.
these are the arrows on the side, (Cooler Fan). Do you think if I position the cooler correctly the fan can exhaust out the top without the need for a fan.

I'm using an AM4 bracket and I don't think it's possible to attach it to blow towards the exhaust fan.

Apologies, I didn't want to try revive an old thread.

So I should place the cooler with the fan facing up towards the top of my case?
