I'm preparing to boost my FX6300's performance.
I'll purchase an Asus M5A97 motherboard and pair it with a Lepa AquaChanger.
My case has four fans, and I'm considering placing the radiator with two fans at the top or opting for one fan in the back.
I need advice on which setup gives the best raw gaming performance and sound quality, especially since the stock cooler is quite loud.
Full specs: CPU AMD FX 6300, GPU Geforce GTX 750TI, motherboard Asus M5A97, PSU XFX TS450 (450W).

Keep the cooler at the top for optimal performance, allowing both fans to effectively move hot air from the radiator rather than relying on a single fan.

You need your cooler at the top for better airflow from both fans, not just one. That’s great! But the radiator fans spin at only 500 rpm—will that be sufficient? And can you swap them out with your existing ones?

The fans included with the cooler function properly, operating at 500 to 2300 rpm, which means your radiator fans will speed up when things get warmer.
