Starting Watercooling System

[andrewmchugh]

Well the RX360 would be in the kit yea? or are you thinking of getting the RX240 kit and another rad?

I believe that the 80mm "monsta" from Alphacool will fit in the roof with pull fans above on the roof.

Yeh there isnt enough room in the roof for an RX in push pull, you will only fit the fans in the roof in pull. Which is fine.

You will need to get a dremmel to cut the top of the 5.25 bay to fit the barbs at the other end if you want a tidy loop. Also if you want to expose more of the rad as the last couple of inches are covered by the top of the 5.25 bay which is not removable. I think if you were to de-rivet it the case will become weak.

Im doing kind of the same build like this. Ive been measuring a bit and it seems that you dont need to mod the case to fit the fittings on a 60mm rad. You need 90 degrees fittings though. Theres like 25-28mm spacing. Just enough to fit bitspower fittings. It will be tight but should just work out. Dont go any bigger than 60 because then it wont fit anymore and you have to have the fittings at the back.

Dont fit a 240 rad in the bottom but fit it in the front. I think it will look better and much easier hosing. You can only fit the rad in the front with 4 screws and not 8. The spacing between the screw holes is not 15mm. But with 4 screws its still sitting very snug.

Thats a good idea the 90 degrees connectors I'm not in England, I'm portuguese and here we don't have the RX D5 kit by XSPC and they don't sell almost anything of XSPC here, EK has the monopoly xD so I'll have to buy the parts separate...

Right now I have this:

ALPHACOOL VPP655 - I don't know if it is D5 or not but has 1500 L/h
XSPC RX360
XSPC RX240
EK Supremacy
EK Water block for GTX680

Would you change something? If you tell me the name of the stuff you think I should bought I tell you if they sell it here...
