Eventually the order of the loop won't matter after the system is up and running since the temps will equalize. I doubt you will see a really significant difference in temps by changing it. As long as you have your rez before the pump, that's all that matters. What matters most for your temps is just how much radiator real estate you have, from what I've read. If you really want some heavy duty cooling have you considered 2x240 Radiator on top of the case? I think its big enough to fit 2! You'll need to measure the width of the rads compared to your case. 2 top mounter 240s and you'll have more than enough cooling.
1080 from what I've read maxes at 80C if you push it hard. You're not overclocking so I think you'll be ok. Definitely cooler than that mini toaster oven R290!
okay, i thought the order play an important role. glad to hear that.

imho, ditch the 240 rad and get a 480 rad and mount it outside. if u are diy person can easily make a rad stand. if not u can get a AX480 rad by xspc which have a rad stand made for it but u need to buy it.

This - This was my initial suggestion. External mount the rad and connect to the loop.
480 rad will be almost 1.5-2 times higher than my small cube
i get what you guys meant. i'll scout some bracket from taobao else, a diy alu bracket or the air 240 top has scew hole as it is meant for 2x120mm fan.
went to the only SHOP in sg that sell watercooling parts.....1 normal fitting cost $19
decided to run my cpu on intel stock cooler for 2 weeks until parts arrive from taobao....
SG ain't a watercooling heaven. due to most ppl get it from oversea themselves.
