Corsair Vengeance C70 with 360 radiator

[jonathan1863]

Hi

I have heard that it is possible to fit a 360mm radiator in a corsair vengeance C70 in the top. Is there any who has succed with that?

also any1 have any ideas with a millitary themed motherboard. The Asus Maximus V Gene isn't matching my millitary green C70?

Regards
Jonathan

You should go sabertooth to keep the theme. As far as the rad, there is no room for a 360. Without dremel, at least

Or any of the Gigabyte G1 mainboards, I think they'd go nice with the case even though the green on there is a bit brighter ^^

The ATX G1 is stupidly expensive in my country, so I keep on forgeting it. You're right though

 

[jonathan1863]

What about the MSI Mpower z77, thinking of it being almost all black?

Yellow accents in a green case, ew no D:
Even though its a great board tbh

And yeah, those G1 boards cost an eff tonne but I think it'd go best with the military theme. Depends on his budget though

From looking at the top, looks like you would have to use a dremel and cut the heck out out the front of the top panel, to allow the rad to vent. This would leave it looking like junk, IMHO, and probably lose at least one, maybe two 5.25" bays. Doesn't look like you could cut enough from the back to fit...
But, I don't have the mechanical drawing - look that up and maybe with the demisions it could.

the yellow strips can be color changed with vinyl or paint.. so i wouldn't poo-poo
it so fast.. a small amount can easily be changed. like gold leaf for rank bars, etc..

as for the 360 roof rad.. you'll loose alot of "character" of the case with the 360 install.
the handles will deffo daunt the build (pretty much disappear). how flaming hot is this
build going to be?

a pair of xspc or alphacool 60mm 240 might suffice..

Does any1 of you know if the marks (on the chipset and the cooling around the socket where is says "Asrock" "Extreme" "Z77")on a Asrock z77 Extreme6 is stickers?

 

[Deejeta]

They arent stickers. Would be easy to change colour though. Green paint pen...

There was another thread recently talking about those yellow highlights. I believe they are just strips of metal glued onto the heat sinks that you can actually peal off...

 

[Etlar]

You can take them off, but why do that to that sexy mobo ?

Actually that looks epic! Have a look at B-Negative's mid- spec build.
