Is this a dumb idea?

Recently, I saw that Lian-Li had announced a new case that would be released next month, the PC-O8.

I really like it...

...but it's just slightly too small for the amount of radiators that I want.

Ideally, I'd have at least six 120x30mm radiator spaces. The PC-O8 can fit a 360, 240 and 120, but the 120 is in the motherboard section and I don't want to clutter that section up too much.

Would having two radiators in the following configuration be a dumb idea?

That's ok just remember your CPU will need more cooling than the gpu's if we can help in any way feel free to ask us :)
 
Installing a rad i the front might block the cable grommets , as the fans in the second chamber are very close to the mb tray, just something to think about. Could you mount the 240 rad where the drives are? can't really tell from lian li's pictures but one with a compact end tank might fit there

Not in the rear of the back half. The case natively fits a 240 in the mobo half at the top and a 360 in the back half in the front. Lian-Li states that those are the only places that radiators can be mounted
