I know a lot of people like the TJ07 and I'm planning to use it (I have another post 1/2 way down page) but has anybody used the 2x92mm fan slots at the back of the case, which is technically an intake, as a place for the radiator? I'm not sure exactly how I would mount the radiator, there are screw holes but I dunno if the spacing is correct...

The reason I ask is within a few months I'm gonna end up having 2 loops, the first with CPU/NB/Mosfet, and the second with 1 GPU and possibly a 2nd GPU and SB...the first loop is to be cooled with a 360 or 480, the second only has a 240, so I don't think that'll be enough in the future...thanks

240 in the top, 360/480 in the bottom. There's not enough room at the rear fans.

I was going to do that but I have no idea how to make any modifications to the case...I heard you needed to make mounting brackets, flatten some things out, and cut up the case to get the 240 to fit up there...I'm kinda scare to mess up a $350 case...

Look at a few Tj07 build logs to get ideas.

Alright thanks...but I had another quick question, if I were to put a Scythe Kama fan replacing 3 of the drive bays, could I mount a 120.1 radiator there? I would attach a fan to the radiator as well, and then the Scythe Kama can pull out the heated air...This way I could have a 360/480mm rad for CPU loop and 120.2+120.1 radiators for the GPUs + SB...

Or should I just be done with the TJ07 and get a MM U2-UFO Duality or MM Pinnacle 24? Granted, they don't look as good as the TJ07 in my opinion...

The TJ-07 has plenty of room for multiple radiators. Mounting one up top isn't all that challenging, I'm sure you'll do a fine job.

Thanks, that's exactly the worklog I've been trying to find, pretty much does everything I want except he seems like he knows what he's doing...appreciate the replies
