    Hi, I'm going to change my TC PA 120.3 in the bottom of TJ-07 for something bigger and better. What do you recommend ? 3x140 or 4x120 ? Is there a 4x140 rad what will fit ? Please help

    I think about:

    Thermochill PA 120.4
    Black Ice GT Xtreme 480
    TFC Xchanger 480

    can't you fit a 120x4 and a 120x3 in the bottom and still keep your PSU? Wouldn't that be the better bet? Or would it need to be a skinnier rad like an MCR or a blackice stealth?

    Two loops - this is the best solution of cooling your hardware. One radiator can't work on this sig.

    I'm going to install one 4x120 rad in bottom and one 2x120 in the front of the case. Problem is, I don't what producer (Thermochill, Feser, HWLabs). I have NoiseBlocker Multiframe MF12-S2 fans and runs them at ~600rpm

    I will mount bottom rad in THIS and front rad in THIS

    did charles used velcro to mount his rads?
    are you sure? i only noticed the hammond box

    anyways, for mounting, i used plexi@acrylic and made it into a mounting plate
    the only holes i drilled was to mount the rad to the plexi
    as for mounting of the plexi to the case, simply reuse the original hdd screw mountings :thumbs:

    Hey GIZIU, you can place your SSD here: (picture is not mine, posted only for reference purposes) And as for the cables, I have the same PSU as you do and I can say that its cables, if tidied up well, will not be an obstacle for putting a 3 X 120 or even 4 X 120 & 2 X 120 rads in the bottom

    BTW, how's your GTX295? How much improvement over 280? I'm aksing 'cause I'm considering getting a single-PCB EVGA GTX295 to replace my GTX285
