So in a previous post I announced I hated my H100i, that still hasn't quite died yet completely btw, and was looking into building a custom loop because my H100i has started to half ass its job.

 

The Problem I need help with is water cooling the NZXT H440. Every water cooling loop I have looked at to get ideas all completely removed the hard drive cage to make room for a reservoir, but i use Three drivesin that rack and dont want to remove it.

 

i though about moving all my hard drives to the bottom mounts in the rack and completely removing the rest from the hard drive shelf mounts so theres room to mount it the the Shroud. I still dont know if that is enough room though.

 

I would like to have a res that is at least 120ml so I can add GPUs to the loop in the future and be at least borderline safe. 

 

the loop ive kinda build up on performance PCs (~RIP frozen cpu) has a dual 120 rad, swifttech cpu block, 170ml rad pump combo, 3/8 x 1/2" compression fitting and tubing, and a ram cooler for kicks.

 

I think i would still have room for another single 120 rad in the back for the added GPUs or even a single 240mm if those even exist.

 

(Ill get some pictures so you guess can see what I'm talking about better)
