enewtI am also a fan of push-pull and of maintaining "positive pressure" in the case (so that there is more air flowing in through fans than out).  This should keep the intake of dust and cat hair to where the fans are...and, per KingEngine, you've hopefully invested in dust filters.  Negative pressure would have air sneaking into the case through cracks in, and corners of, the case. 

 
Same here, slight positive, not too much.  I also sealed my case to ensure all air passes through a fan and filter.  it's not air-tight, but all those little edges, open grills spots are closed off on my case.

Has anyone installed this in the standard size P011 Dynamic case? Just wondering what options are as I am thinking I may upgrade to XL so I can mount it in the rear and run under rad hose under the side intake fans!

My current setup with the 3090 XC3 hybrid. Ideally I'd swap the CPU and GPU rads, but without switching to a vertical card mount, the CPU hoses end up resting on the backplane, which I didn't care for. Also probably not possible to fit the FTW version without a vertical mount. The hoses from the XC3 are already close to that glass wall.
 
EDIT: I said "current" and then immediately realized it wasn't a current pic because of fan reversals. lol. Top fans (CPU rad) and bottom fans are intake, front/side fans (GPU rad) are now exhaust with push/pull.

Are you capable of putting the radiator in the back like I can with the XL? Asking for a friend. 
 

Yep! It actually is setup that way with the radiator and pull fans on the back side of the case wall, just the push fans on the inside. Another change I made after that picture. :)

Man, there's A LOT of hate on Lian Li cases right now on reddit because they're so popular. But this is why they're the best cases. Aesthetically beautiful and they thought about almost everything you would want in a case. Anyone else think of ways to hide radiators like this? I can't recall. Makes me want to build inside a mini.

Hey all, ao got a random question, setting up the 3090 hybrid on my brother's pc, he wants to use his ML120 fans on the rad, so do we ignore the fan headers coming from pump and plug the fans directly into the commander pro and monitor/control through icue and use x1 for the fans on card only? I can't see an issue with this but would rather ask now and hook it up once Than come across a problem later abd redo it all.

Also for reference, on the 3090 hybrid, what Temps are people staying at under load and gaming? For reference ... thanks all

Edit: the best configuration is push-pull > Push > Pull
I would put the fans in a push configuration where they push the air through the radiator.

Always use pull in all my builds, CPU or GPU AIO.

That video has no compelling reasons to put your setup in pull unless if you have a cat or something. 

Dust is dust, cat or not, considering that push vs pull are essentially identical in cooling performance, pull actually is better at higher rpm, what is the reason to go for push in this scenario and dealing with higher maintenance overhead that requires unbolting fan for full cleaning?

This test actually shows Pull outperforming Push in Low and High RPM scenario, but it's very close.

Curious if my 3090 FTW3 Hybrid temps are ok. It settles around 66*C while gaming for a few hours, thats with the power slider all the way up in PX1. Boosts nicely 1900+. There is a temp sensor in iCX that gets hotter than all the others, GPU2. I don't know what thats about. Before with the air cooler the entire card and all sensors would be almost at 80*C. So this is a great improvement.

Would you know anything about push or pull with standard fans vs push/pull with slims? I only have maybe 35mm of clearance.

You need static pressure optimized fan. Do they make them in slim design, I don't think so.

Installed my 3090 FTW3 Hybrid (sku 3988) on the weekend. I still had my FTW3 air, so I thought I'd share the differences between the hybrid and the FTW3 air.
 
With the exception of #3, no overclocks just max power.
 

1. XOC OC bios (Time Spy)
   1. Air: 18,649 -> 20,031 GPU score
   2. Hybrid: 19,076 --> 20,685 GPU score
      1. : 
2. Stock OC Bios (Time Spy)
   1. Air: 18,619 --> 19,917 GPU score
   2. Hybrid: 19,069 --> 20,585 GPU score
3. Best overclocked score (Time Spy)
   1. Air:19,207 --> 20,809 GPU score
      Hybrid: 19,599 --> 21,362 GPU score
4. Stock OC (Port Royal)
   1. Air: 13,105
   2. Hybrid: 13,512

So I'm getting about a 400 point boost in each comparison and a 20 degree reduction in temps (70 C down to 50 C).
