    A little sneak peak at what i plan to do. I will probably remove one of the 120.3's from the top just because i think room will be tight. But this should turn out to be a complete monster.

    Sponsors will be confirmed at a later date ;)

    Follow'd :cool::D

    Hmm. Kinda depends on (width of case/2) - 120mm versus any high-clearence components or RAM modules within the area of the mobo that the second fan bank would overhang - its a real precise measuring job to see of the overhang is viable. If not you're stuck mounting the second (upper) rad on top and making an enclosure to hide teh uglies :o

    You will see. I have something very special in mind for that :)

    As for the 2 top rads, looks like i might have to go for some blackice stealth units to get it to work. The 2 ek ones i want are far to big even with very thin fans.

    I don't think he is able to answer you. He's been sitebanned. But he is using the XIGMATEK XLF-F1253 - http://www.xigmatek.com/product.php?productid=77&type=photo

    Yeah i noticed that a few days later :(
    I actually bought the black version of that fan to test and wasn't impressed with the noise to air ratio so i've decided to go with gentle typhoons as i cant really find anything bad about them.

    Thanks for the heads up though Ryan. :)

    Wouldn't have worked anyway.

    He's gone, essentially, four rads stacked. Even with just two, the second one usually only cools to about 30% capacity. Nifty idea, but unless it's in subzero temperatures to begin with, it won't do much over a normal setup.
