Corsair 700D Bottom Radiator Mounting

[Ollii]

Hey, I was planning on having a 240mm radiator at the bottom of my 700D but I'm not quite sure on how to mod the bottom hard drive cage out, I see there is plenty of 800D videos on how to do this but the 700D is quite a bit different in terms of the bottom hard drive layout so could anyone give me some advice on what to do to remove it?

From what I can see there are simply 4 rivets holding the cage in at the bottom and then 4 more at the top, the bottom 4 are easy to drill out but how an earth do I get to the top 4 ? as they are inside the case and connected to the hard drive fan tray. However this only solves getting the cage out, what would I have to afterwards to get a 240 rad there working well?

Take a big hammer, hit repeatedly. Take an even bigger hammer and repeat untill satisfied with the carnage. Buy a better case. Job done. Happy times

, Just watched a video of an 800D modding and tbh I might leave it and not bother, the 580 doesn't get overly hot anyway does it ?

EDIT: Oh and just quickly will these screws do for fitting the rad to the case (On the 360 we were talking about earlier) : http://www.chilledpc.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=60_146&products_id=1559

Now that's not constructive Tom, far too much effort involved unless you get someone to do the hammering for you.

Use Semtex

i have seen people using dremels to get them out, just buy a 240mm fan grill and drill the holes, and then mount ya rad
