External H440 Radiators

[TheNinjaNextDor]

I can't fit enough cooling inside my H440 in a way that looks nice, so I'm thinking I'll just mount the rads to the outside. I can fit a 480 on the bottom, back side panel, or back of the case and a 360 on the inside.

 

Where should I do this? I'm thinking the back side panel, bottom, or back. What would you do?

 

Thanks.

Do you mean something like this?

 

 

Kinda of, but mounted to the case instead of a thingy like that.

Can you Mod a mount for like an extra 240mm rad behind the bottom shrouded portion of the case.

What could you possibly be running that you wouldn't be able to cover with a 360 and 280 together?

It's too hard to get a 240 in the front.

.........not at all lol. You can fit a 360 in front. Are you implying that you are actually gonna use all the drive caddies?

Have you tried? lol Getting a pump, res, and 360 or 240 is almost impossible. No reason to be a dick.

...dont know how that could be implied as being a dick but okay. If you really cant get fit a loop in it, just get a bigger case.

Just for reference once you actually get the parts and realuze that it really doesnt take that much space. You probably could keep the psu cover with a bit of drilling for the tubes.

I have all the parts. That's how I know it doesn't fit. Also, that picture is not of an H440...

Scroll through the pages to see. And a quick google search would give you much more. The H440 was built for watercooling in mind.

 

EDIT: been derping alot lately. Sorry bout that, above link didnt actually have a real picture of it with the setup done.

Heres a video, 

 

You could still go with external radiators, but if you can fit it in, it just makes it more of a hassle honestly.

 

I suggest a top mounted radiator, this way you get the radiator and also the pump and still around half of the drive caddies.
