Phanteks PH-TC14PE in NZXT Phantom 410 with sidewindow mod

[wotevajjjj]

Hi
I'm helping a friend pick out some parts for a new rig, so far, we have decided on using the Phantom 410. I however want to use the giant phanteks cooler.
The cooler is 171mm high and from what I read the 410 can fit coolers up to 169mm. We will be using the lp corsair vengeance ram.
My question to you, since in another thread someone already said it wouldn't fit, is what if me cut out a window and mount it from the outside, maybe even with little spacers. Would it fit without the window sticking out too much ?
Thx guys!

would look bloody stupid is that what you want?

Just change the cooler.

That would be the smartest thing to do, any one here got any tips? It's a white/blue 410 with the g45 motherboard.
That phanteks would look awesome in there tho :-(

Just get a h100, because if you fit a window outside the case the awesome looks would be gone

H100 is a bit too expensive, especially because you need to buy other fans...

True forgot about the crappy fans

Maybe the ce phanteks ? €10 cheaper and only slightly warmer than a d14 or silver arrow according to what i read

edit: this review says 175mm space: http://www.overclockers.com/nzxt-phantom-410
guess we'll give it a go than...
