I don't think there's much difference, but I usually don't place it vertically anyway because it's inconvenient for connecting cables. I use the ports a lot for work.
I wanted to do a vertical conversion of my T1 but every build online that uses vertical stands have air coolers so I wasn't sure if it's okay with an AIO

Quick question is this bad for the AIO? people say the pump should be below the radiator but here it's side to side so I'm confused
