I'm trying to figure out the best way to position the pump of my Arctic Liquid Freezer 360 III. Right now, the pump is mounted toward the top of the case, but I'm wondering if it would be better to flip it so that it points down instead. The radiator is installed at the top of the case, and I want to make sure I'm getting the best performance without trapping air in the pump.

It usually doesn't matter which way the pump is oriented as long as it's not the highest point in the loop. You want to avoid any air getting into the pump itself. Just keep an eye on the performance!
That's true. I heard the LF 360 III is sometimes suggested to be flipped the other way for better heat distribution. You might want to consider remounting it, even if your temps seem fine.
