Ahah indeed no comparison possible as it’s not fitting inside sm570...
Anyway keep push & extract mode, it will work just as fine..
Right. I should've gone with an SM580!

@Allhopeforhumanity sorry to hear about your fedex issues. It really sucks to have something like that happen. I never use fedex if I don't have to. Their ground service is absolutely terrible. I have issues with them myself.
Thanks man. This is the first time I've had any negative interaction with them, they've otherwise been pretty solid in my area, particularly with wedding registry stuff a few months ago.
The worst part now is that they keep taunting me with saying its going to be delivered by end of day, and then come 7pm they're like, nope "no delivery attempted, rescheduled for next business day". This has been going on since Thursday after "losing the package" on Tuesday, and every day I've called they assure me that "its on the truck and will definitely be delivered today" but also state that I can't speak to the claims officer until Monday because "that's just standard procedure until its lost for good or delivered". Fingers crossed that today will finally be the day, but I'm pretty disillusioned at this point to be honest.
Ok, I just tried doing this now in my SM570 case and it failed
With the fans in pull, the radiator sits too low in an SM570 and interferes with the PSU bracket. The radiator is already mounted all the way to the front side of the bracket. @KSliger, do you have any suggestions for this?
Is it not possible to slide the radiator towards the front of the case?
Do you have a picture of how you have the radiator attached to the top bracket?
Can you check that the AIO mount bracket is not installed backwards?
I have this same H100i in my case, fits just fine, so something is up.
I asked about that yesterday actually, they said they couldn't release the package from its current location, and that if I wanted it transferred to a nearby FedEx store, it would take longer than attempting redelivery.
Email us and we will get our rep on this, not acceptable.
Thanks, I sent you guys a detailed email on the matter after another "no delivery attempted" delay notice just arrived this evening.
I'm no longer on-site but to answer your questions:
1. I have the radiator already installed to the left most part (front of the case) in that picture. The two right most screws for the radiator are already hitting the left edge of the two rightmost mounting holes of the bracket.
2. I don't and I can't take a picture until the next 2 weeks. Can you take a picture of yours so that I can compare? With this setup, are you able to route the tubes behind the PSU? I checked and even though there is more slack with the pull setup, the tubes are still not long enough to be able route them properly behind the PSU.
3. No, it is not installed backwards. I made sure that the handle mounting holes are facing the front of the case as stated in the manual.
For information it exists at least 2 variants of Noctua NF A9x14 PWM fan..
Stand alone fan seems a better overall choice as included fan is providing 10% more airflow but with +4dB(A).
- Stand alone nf a9x14 pwm fan features a max rpm of 2200rpm with airflow of 50,5 m³/h & noise @19.9dB(A)
- Included nf a9x14 pwm fan with cpu cooler has a max rpm of 2500rpm with airflow of 57,5 m³/h & noise @23.6dB(A)

What are peoples thoughts on the best way to orient the x62 fans and radiator on my SM580 case? The options are:
For ease of cleaning the radiator of dust I think having the fan on top in exhaust mode or the fan on bottom in intake mode would be best. From what I have read on this thread, it seems the vented SM580 works best when set up as a negative pressure case (ie fans in exhaust mode). So is it best to orient the x62 with the fans on top of the radiator, pulling air through the rad and out of the case?
Thanks.
- Fan on top of radiator, pulling air through radiator and out of case (exhaust)
- Fan on top of radiator, pushing air into radiator and into the case (intake)
- Fan below radiator, pushing air into radiator and out of case (exhaust)
- Fan below radiator, pulling air through radiator and into case (intake)

It's all depending on what you are looking : better cpu or better gpu temperature..
For better GPU temperature : both top and bottom fans in exhaust mode. GPU will have proper intake fresh air from side and its hot air will be exhausted quickly from case with this scheme...however cpu cooler will receive hot air thus cpu temperature will be higher (not in a crasy way).
For better CPU cooling temperature : TOP fans in intake and bottom as exhaust. In that case, CPU cooler will have best performance...however CPU hot air will partially hindered gpu cooling.
If your main purpose is gaming, just go for better GPU performance setup and it will lead to lower gpu temperature and less noise..
