My current Case

So i'm new to the LinusTechTips Forums, so if I placed this in the incorrect i'm sorry and please link me to the right location. 

Eitherway I was looking into purchasing a closed loop cpu cooler since i've never touched watercooling and I figured a pre-done solution

is my best bet to avoid any issues. 

 

My question is:

Will either of these cooling solutions fit my case? I was leaning to putting the radiator on the top of the case and removing the fans the 

case comes with in order to do it. It is a rather large case and i've yet to have issues with fitting anything in it.

I was also thinking of purchasing the larger radiator since based on the little I know, "larger radiator = Better cooling"

AFAIK, you will need to mod the case to mount them properly in the top of it. Same with the Rosewill Throne.

No, a 120mm AIO might though.

Pcpartpicker.com says yes which conflicts with what i think.

Firstly, it looks like the clearance in the top of that case is pretty slim, so you might struggle getting a 240mm radiator AND a set of fans up in the top. Assuming the drive bays are removable, you should be able to get it in the front just fine with the right mounting holes. 

 

Secondly, there are a lot more factors to consider when it comes to water cooling. a larger surface area can mean better cooling, yes - assuming you have fans with appropriate static pressure and air flow for the given radiator.

I wouldn't look at anything larger than the 240mm AIO's you're already looking at. Your case, while big, isn't laid out particularly efficiently.
