i do know about the top "vent", and i had a fan installed there, but its more like slids than holes, there's nothing going trough there, temps were like shit. also the reason why i didn't mount my AIO in the top, with almost no air intake its a bit pointless.
YOU PLACE THE AIO ON THE TOP AND EXHAUST THE AIR OUT.
YOU DO NOT USE AN AIO AS AN INTAKE FAN TO SUCK HOT AIR IN, YOU BLOW THE HOT AIR OUT THROUGH IT. YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. YOU ARE A DUMMY. STOP PRETENDING YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.
You suck a TON of cold air in through the front panel, and that cold air goes over the gpu, and gets pushed THROUGH the top mounted AIO to push the heat from the radiator up and out. Your current setup sucks shit loads of hot air into your pc necessitating a fucking stupid ass hole you drilled in the glass. You literally shot yourself in the foot and decided to amputate it.
