wow i didn't know this setup i planned of positioning the rad, pump, and res so common. Turbodream, i think i will have to hijack you idea of modding the drive cages to hold the rad, thanks for the idea. Zeus, that is one nice display. post pics when you paint it all black, it will look even better

it looks like the rad takes up 6 whole bays and MAYBE partial of the 7th bay slot. but looks like there is still a lot of room on that 7th slot so can you fit anything else there? or does it make that bay unusable?

i know it will blow warm air into the case, but would that really matter? since i have all the important stuff/chips cooled already, would warm temps really affect all the other stuff? i also have 3 fans to exhaust all that warm air

i think a PA120.3 is too big. there are only 11 bay slots, and it will take up 9 for the rad/fan and an additional one for the part where water enters/leaves. i already planned to use the top slot for power/reset button and fan controller, the next two slots for optical drives, and the 4th for the HD. thermaltake cases are bad to mount rads on the bottom because the case isn't raised enough so the rad can breath right?
