So i'm getting this cpu cooler today and i was wondering where should it be pointed at since my case doesn't have any mounting on the top to place a fan (it has a cutout though, i guess to let some heat go out). Should i just point to a 120mm fan i have mounted on the rear, or point it to the cutout on the top of the case?
Case is a Raidmax Viper II
Also, i have two 120mm fans mounted on the front of the case, if that helps in any way.

Place it in a way that the CPU cooler's intake fan points forward, directing the exhaust from the rear 120mm fan outward.

Mount it in a way that the CPU cooler's intake fan points forward, directing exhaust through the 120mm fan at the back. That rear fan will expel the hot air from the case. I'll do that once I receive it later today. Appreciate the prompt response.
