Wouldn't the electronics box on the lower fan shroud (top picture) be better off mounted against the flat radiator portion that has no fins in-between the two fans? Odd to me to place it such that it impedes airflow given the room you have. Edit: just realized those are OEM fans so I am sure this was not a GTM design decision.

Along those lines, it's interesting to me that so much of the back is blocked off so such that air can't freely flow through. You would think that this would really impact heat exchange efficiency. Perhaps the action of the fans more than makes up for that. Very nice looking kit in any event. It is about 2x what the CSF kit costs so I am curious what the performance difference is.
