Hello, guys today i decided to get water cooling and new case for myself but then i wondered how do i know if case support top 240 mm radiator with fans mounted on it, in original site it just says that it supports 2x 120 mm fans but how do i know if it supports 240 mm radiator and does it support not only corsairs water cooler AIO but other brands water cooling options?

Yeah, but with most products, if they're not suitable, you can return them and get something that's more suitable.

It's just a matter of trial and error mate. :)

Yes, you can fit a 240mm in the top. Either push or pull, that means, fans on one side or the other but not fans on both sides. Which is fine, fans on both sides don't really do too much more in most cases

yes...that should work with 240 rads ;)

thanks guys besides is it possible to mount fans up and radiator under fans so fans would intake air from outside the case?

Unfortunately you can't fit fans above and below, but as mentioned before, have that configuration doesn't help performance all that much.

yes it is possible. however if you install the fans in this way you will need to run the fans in push mode since you are pushing the air through the rad into the case. this will result in dust buildup between radiator and fan.

 

i think we had a little misunderstanding with the other guy thinking you want to install fans on both sides of the rad.
