Important question about Cooler master Elite 340

**miptzi** · 10-05-2010, 03:31 PM

This is hard:

I want to mod the front for 3x120mm fans
I NEED to know if the case can handle that.

the homepage says that the case have 370mm height, BUt I don't know if the feet is included in that.

I need to know, by internal measuring, if I can expect to get my 360mm clearance in the front, top to bottom...

tha case is old AND rare, but I need to ask...

bump????
any luck?

forgive me for being a noob to WC...but even with that, arn't most rads larger than their fans due to the need to have somewhere for them to be able to have the barbs+spacing for the fans? most of the 3*120mm rads i've found are in the 390-420 mm long category

Just from eyeballing the pics on google images with 120*1 rads in them, it doesn't look like you'd be able to fit a 3*120 rad. Also most rad sizes vary so it would be helpful if you could post what 3*120 rad you were interested in putting in the case. A lot of manufacturer's websites list the exact dimensions of their rads for this purpose.

sorry folks, my bad.

Air building, tis in fact 3x120mm fans.

BUT a retail seller here in brazil told me it has 368mm internally, thats enough.

Tanx for your time.

Not sure which 3x120mm rad it is enough for as most 3xrads are pretty close to 400mm.

its no rad, man, just 3 fans.

I bought the case this mornig aftes the seller told me the exact size

whoa, where did I get that from? My bad =P

no problemo. :P

I'll make a 3x120 intake, reverse the backpanel ( inverted ATX mode) and make 2x120 exhaust in the top, near the vga.
It will looks cool, great flow and really small.
