Hi there, I have a Stacker and I have a single 360 rad installed on one side of the 915. I am going to install a second rad on the other side, but I am a bit confused about the airflow.

Should both rads have the fans installed for intake? Both exhaust? One intake and the other exhaust?


Thanks!

I would say install both as intake as that should result in lowest temps (otherwise you would get incredibly little out of second rad as it would feed on already hot exhoust of first rad) and put single 120mm fan in the back (I suppose there are no spots for fan at the top as that would be ideal).
 
I can only place a single 92mm fan on the front of the 915, as exhaust.

My idea for the airflow is that the 1st rad will cool the warm water so the 2nd rad, will not exhaust very warm air on the 1st. Dunno how this 'll work though..

There is no great way to go about it considering the miniscule amount of airspace you have but feeding the 2nd rad with warm air will defeat the point of having a 2nd rad setup. If you do that remove the 2nd rad as it will add hardly any cooling.
