I wanted to put my liquid cooler where the red lines are. A guy I know told me that isn't good because the 3 front fans blowing air into the computer would blow air through the radiator and that would mess it up. Is that true? Fans blowing air through a liquid coolers radiator is bad? This isn't my PC but it is the same case. Coolmaster TD500 MASTER BOX.

It seems fine...
You have the radiator outlet in the bottom position, and the cpu is not too high above the highest point in the setup.

If something is wrong, you will hear the pump rattle, or make sloshing noises.
