Fan question

[gamer tom]

I have a 300r and I'm planning to get the H220. I don't have enough space in my case so I would have to mount the radiator internally and the fans externally.

Just a quick question, how do you connect the fan to the mobo or psu if it's on top of the case?

thanks

When I set up push pull on the 360 rad in the top of my 800d, I drilled a whole, put a grommet in and ran the cables to the interior of the case. You can also run them through the water cooling grommets in the back of your case.

I agree with The Man, through the water cooling grommets in the back is probably the easiest.

I would personally drill one of the ventilation holes on the top of the case bigger so that you could fit one of the cables through. Either that, or mod the case somehow as " The Man" has said.

Err...if you mean mount the fans on top of the case, I wouldn't do that as things could fall or dust could easily get into the fans...I would mount the radiator on top and have the fans internally to be honest.

Also, I'm not watercooling man, haven't tried and know absolutely nothing about it, but that is the way I would do it, or get some sort of fan shroud.

You could take the fan pins out of the header, put them through the mesh and then reconnect them on the other side. Its a lot of effort but it would go directly in if you did it that way.
