Question 1

do the fans blow towards the radiator or away from it?

Accepted Answer

You can adjust the fans to blow in either direction with a phillips screwdriver

Question 2

From what I saw in the video for this, it has a thermal compound already on the product.  Does this paste work well, or should I use some Coolermaster Thermal compound that I have laying around from a previous build?

Accepted Answer

It works just fine. It keeps my Ryzen 1700X (which is a hot cpu running at 3.8GHz OC all the time) at 30 at idle and at 65 at load. If I OC to 4.0GHz the temps change to around 32/75, which are the same figures that most reviewers got for 1700X with liquid cooling.

About a foot, but you lose around 2 inches on each end for bwding the hose.

Question 10

does this work with msi mystic light?

Accepted Answer

No , and don,t buy CPU cooling just because it works with mystic light.
I have this cooler and it is very high standard. It has it's own software that works in the background and does not load like normal processes upon computer startup. And that is what you want , it operates on a bios level unaffected by everything else.
You can set all the perimeters with the included EVGA software.
It operates on it's own including the leds, that's really what you want. You cant mess around with something that could let your CPU overheat.
