Hello! I’m completely new to PC airflow setup. I’m planning to buy Kraken and need advice on where to install it. My goal is to position the LL120 RGB fans in front of the Sharkoon TG5 case. I came across a YouTube video that shows fans being placed on the GPU side, with radiators having fans on both sides. I want to replicate that setup but make sure it’s done correctly, safely, and without installing water cooling due to my MSI Z170a Gaming M5 motherboard.

Sorry, this won't work because the Kraken is a 280mm AIO. You'll need 140mm fans instead. Position the Kraken at the front so the 140mm fans direct air through the radiator into the case. The LL120 fans should be moved elsewhere or replaced with LL 140 models for proper operation.
