pump/res placement

[RobM]

I had to remove my loop to fit my new graphics card, I want to put it back in but have no idea where to put it.
I am using this case, - Phanteks Enthoo Pro Tempered Glass
I have removed the framework that the holds the drive cages where I had the res originally located.

The res/pump measures 30cm tall, 6cm diameter.
Ideally I would remove the remaining drive bay, but it contains 3 hdd with no mounting option round back for them.

Buy a pump holder that attaches to radiators or fans. Then you can attach it to the front of the cast suspended above the HDD cage (which I always removed in every case I owned)

Aye it looks like only option is gonna be a fan mount

You could always do what I did for a snug fit. I bought bitspower premium pump mount that was suppose to attach to fans, but I actually drilled 2 holes and mounted it to the chassic so it stood vertical beside the motherboard.

Only one I saved was a pre finished build in my old 1000D case. I do this these premium mounts are the nicest and most solid things I have seen that isnt from Singularity.

And the threads on the front actually allow you to attach another set of mounts for an extra free standing res if you wanted. Although It would be tricky to achieve

Love the look of those mounts, sadly not available here in the uk

You order them direct from BP. Its probably far cheaper than the import fees I had to pay. Although I did buy lots of fittings etc too.

BP deliveries are actually quite swift.

I would keep using them in my own case if I had the space (using lian li now)

However with that in mind. I suppose it does also depend on your res tube diameter. Would suck to order these and find the tube is too big or small.

I think my EK res is the usual standard size, I will stick to something from UK as I have no need for anything else from BP and will be stung on import duty more than likely

Have you considered an EK Kinetic pump/res? They are a bit more uniform is shape and fit easier to fan mounts imo. I really like them!

As far as I can tell, EK-Res and the kinetic are the same shapes and sizes.
I think I am gonna need a smaller tube

I forgot to add the FLT. Apologies. They are square / rectangle shaped.

I have ordered a new smaller res tube.
