the 1st pic is about as far "down pointing" as it will go. I have pusher fans on the front, so those arnt a concern.

Its v-banded, so a silicone hose probably isn't the answer here. I cant seem to fit piping in if i tried for pics 1 and 2, thus why i went to option 2 and 3. i at least have some room to get out, but idk if they make an extremely tight radius-ed 120* 2.5" IC pipe.
