So I had a question about the U2-UFO case particularly the one with the Original Top (2-120mm fans and half window).

I was curious if anyone has chosen to use the rear dual 120mm fan exhaust to mount a radiator? What radiator they have mounted? Fitiment problems? And most importantly if there was any problem getting the radiator to fit with the to mounted 120mm fan right above it?

It was noted on one build that a person couldn't mount the original top backwards because the 120mm fan interfered with his PA 120.3 on the front 3 fan holes. I am curious if this is also the case on the back 2 for a PA 120.2 or if it is any different due to spacing of the fan holes from the top of the case etc.

Anyone with any experience or knowledge about the dimensions of the U2-UFO Original Top case please chime and and help me.

Thank you.

I have a dual loop setup in my u2-ufo and have the original top. I ended up putting an mcr220 in the rear of the case just because I couldnt find a 120.2 in stock at the time. I can tell you the swiftech rad fits just fine even with a fan installed on the top panel right above it. Not sure about the PA rad though...

Good to know about the MCR220. How is the fan fitament with the MCR220 Rad? Do things line up perfectly?

Rear holes are spaced for Swiftech / Black Ice rads, front holes are spaced for ThermoChill rads...
