I'm looking at different ways to mount two 120.3 radiators in a case for a dual loop system. After seeing the new PCV2010 from lian li, it looked like it had just enough room. The problem is that in order to fit them into the case, one of the radiators would need to be mounted on top of the case (with the other one mounted on the side-back panel. sorta where it would be on a tj07.)
The problems that I have with this are 1) I want my radiator to draw cool air into it, so those 3 fans would be intake fans on the case 2) hot air rises, so naturally the top of the case is the best place to have exhaust fans 3) hot air would rise in the case, and be pushed back down by the 3-120mm fans and out the only 2 exaust fans, one each on the front and back panels of the case.
. . anyway, I'm wondering whether this is a good idea, or if I need to worry about this at all??
