Longer radiator screws for Artic Liquid Freezer Aio series - Push-Pull mounting!

[b1k3rdude]

Bought some std 30mm rads screws from amazon to mount my new ALF280 to my case fans, to my case, but they are just a little bit too short.

 

I then went on a search and found the following -

I’m buying 8x 1-1/4”(32mm) and 8x1-3/8”(35mm) so will see which will fit without having to be modded (via bench grinder) and come back here with the results.

Question 1. Does stock screws work? (is the lenght ok), if yes, then meassure screws and buy the same lenght

Sorry for the very late reply, but I just got pinged on Reddit about this so figured I should update the thread. If you mean the long screw that came with the ALFII? No they aren't long enough hence the post.

I just got the Liquid Freezer II 280 and want to set it up as push/pull as well.

 

The included screws are obviously too short to run both through the case, the fans and into the radiator. 

 

So what screws did you end up using? The  8x 1-1/4”(32mm) or the 8x1-3/8”(35mm)?  And did you have to modify them first?
