wow, didnt expect an answer so fast!!
that info is good but its also bad news :( it will have to be a pa120.3 uptop, pa120.1 at the front and a pa120.1 at the back then! I've pretty much decided on the G70 when i get back into using cases in the new year :rolleyes:
i got the idea (or the copy) of that layout from the case in this post http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=5829 :D
hehe, im planning on a 120.2 in the front for my own machine im rebuilding (time to replace my PC70)
been doing it this way for years matey

Thats my case atm, but will make a 120.2 fit in the front :p might have to remake a new front panel but i'll worry about that as and when!
follow it here http://www.chilledpc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=40488 might show you a way to fit the rad in the front once I do it!
ill have a lil look at that thread dude :)
if you get it done nicley i might have to drop you a pm about doing it for me ;)
you could cut the bottom area of the 5.25 bays out, not the whole thing though, just where the rad pops through. seems to me like it would work perfect
Aye thats the easy bit.
Once you do that the floppy bays have no way to hold the bezels in and im also concerned the front panel wouldnt allow enough airflow through for the rad.
So may be a case of either cutting the front panel to have a grill in there or make a new front plate to cover the bottom half of the front panel
perhaps cutting the front pannel to have intake holes for 2*120mm fans would be a good idea

Another one for ya ;)
This is my personal rig
:O tom there's a god almighty air bubble near your rad
Thats one of the best cases Lian Li make for LC and you've done a great job of exploiting its potential.
wow those cares are a piece of art!
Awesome job on the build! Paint is beautiful! I saw some of your other pics on build (thanks for posting) going to use some of your wire hiding holes, my wiring is an embarrasment next to yours.
I have the exact same case with PA120.3 at top, but my cpu temps are too high with my OC ultra in same loop, and making second loop with mcr220 for ultra (too lazy to track down the barbs again for pa120.2).
What do you guys, with more experience than me, think about putting it in the bottom? Might be a little more aesthetically challenged, but basically leave the front intake fan in place, then put the rad where the pumps are in bottom. I can fit both my ddc unmodded pumps in bottom rung of 5.25 bay, side by side. I pretty much ordered the stuff, hoping the air flow is going to be ok. Wondering about casters vs feet also for clearance.
damn that orange and black case is sexy. I would really love to see a TJ07 with that paint job.
Its a shame the US dollar is so weak right now :(.
Awesome paint jobs!
