View Full Version : Will this radiator fit?
I'm planning to make a build for my dad using the Lancool PC-K62 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112239) with the Black Ice GTS280 (dual 140mm) (http://www.dangerden.com/store/black-ice-gts280-stealth.html) inside the chassis, but I was wondering if it'll fit right under the dual top 140mm fans.

I don't know that case, but here are the dimensions (http://www.hwlabs.com/images/stories/gt/dimensions/d_gts280.jpg) for that rad.

Not certain, but that rad is a high FPI design. It would need high speed (loud) fans. You might want to look at the Swiftech MCR220-QP, unless he won't mind the noise.

Actually, the reason why I want that rad is because it utilizes the 140mm fans found up top in the chassis. I'm open to suggestions to other 140mm rads though (if available).

Well with it being 140mm, you might be able to get away with slower fans to some certain extent. I was looking to see if you had the option to mount 120s, but didn't see anything about that. I'm guessing you are going with that case because of the 140mm fans though.

As far as I know, HWLabs is the only company offering dual 140mm rads at the moment. I know Thermochill are about to release (or has released?) a triple 140mm rad, so maybe a dual rad will follow. Both the GTX and GTS series from HWLabs are excellent radiators, though.
Have you already bought the case? I'm looking at some pictures, and it seems awfully tight for a rad up top.

I was thinking the same thing. The case as a whole seems it will be a little tight for a WC'ing setup. Any reason you are looking at this case if you haven't gotten it already?
There aren't alot of options in the 140mm fan department from the quick look I did on PPC.

I just thought that the chassis was incredibly cheap for the amount of features it has.
