Hey guys, just installed the new cooler. General temps seem cooler but is there anything else I can check to make sure I installed correctly? First time replacing CPU cooler in a PC.

All fans are running.

This is idle temps - https://prnt.sc/ux85il

You need to throttle the cpu with something like Prime95 and monitor temps at the same time.

Hey mate, what ways should the fans on the radiator be sat if the radiator is on the top side of the case?

It should be situated so that the fans are blowing air out of the case

I get that, but how do you know what direction that is? If they're mounted on to the radiator? Am I right in thinking the open side of the fan should be facing down into the case?
