    preliminary 360rad mounting..


    removed the mounting bracket so that the rad can get more air from the side vent...

    sweet... that should be enough for airflow... I was looking at radiator options for this case and was considering cutting grill like slots in the front which would ruin the look

    @emoners thanks........tpc is down..herherher


    @b@llzor..the rad im using is 30mm thick with the bracket on...if you can see ive removed the bracket to give more air to the rad fins coming from the side vent..removing the bracket gives me an additional 4-5mm

    there is another rad which had only 25mm thick..which is to thin for my application...

    migth get my bp fittings tomorow....


    @logic..thanks mate
