    Thermochill 140.3 in tj07 botton section.

    The PA 140.3 have 142mm wide and the botton section of the tj07 have 152mm, would be the 5mm of clearance in both sides of the botton section enough for the rad?
    And since the mesh have 120mm and the fans 140mm if i use a config in push and pull would i have benefits of the bigger fans?
    Im just wondering if its possible to fit without mods.

    I believe you would have to remove the rear panel of the case to get it in since the rad is too thick to twist it into place when installing from the side.

    it should work fine once u get it in there, and the mesh may be 120mm but the benefit is the larger area it dosnt matter if the air cant flow as freely in those 20mm it will still be a longer rad and it will still blow or suck through the mesh

    I don't think you'll be able to put fans on both sides of the rad cause the psu will be in the way. Please post pics when you're done, i'm really curious what it would look like.

    In the TJO7 simply unscrew the midplate, put the rad in and then screw the midplate back in. Thats what i had todo with my XSPC RX360 as i have it on a stand in the lower compartment.

    What do you guys think about this radiator? Would it be huge performance upgrade from regular 120.3 rad?

    size wise its like this, performance corresponds to size.

    120.3 < 120.4 <~= 140.3

    No, you can never have enough rads/cooling surface.

    Well, yes, I know that but I think that would be enough to keep it in reasonable temps (50-60s)...

    Well im ordering one in this week, but sadly the fans and some of the cooling stuffs will only arrive in 2-3 months, i had to ask shipping by sea cause the size of the box so i dont pay an huge ammount of shipping, i live in Brazil and its hard to find good watercooling stuffs, so dont expect i start before october, i hate to wait but its the way things are.
    Good thing my first box arrive, my tj07 and the computer parts are here i believe i can start another tj07 log in a couple of days just to show some of the things i will be trying to do.

    welcome, another brazilian.
    I use to bring my parts on baggage when traveling to USA, that is the easy way.
    Regarding the case and the PA140.3, I don't think it will work the way you want it, I'd rather buy a 120.4, maybe the XSPC

    wow, 2-3 months? can you wait that long? i have a personal shipping pod with dhl in OH (borderlinx) and they can ship them to singapore in less than 3 days. cost per volumetric weight is about 5kgs = $36.72, 10kgs = $65.22, 25kgs = $142.82 not bad imo.

    now if i could just find a way to mount a TC140.3 into a 120mm bracket or boltings at the back of my case i would have loved this instead of a monsta
