Issues with liquid cooling

Pretzel · December 28, 2015

Hello, I have just received a capitan 360 liquid cooler for christmas, but I have mot set up a liquid cooler before, and do not know how to set it up, and a big issue I have is the fact that I have a Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01 case, which is a mid with only 2 fan slots. Is it possible to set up the 2 together?

You're going to have a difficult setting up that triple rad in that case without some modding. Top is only compatible with with a 240mm radiator and the front looks like you can do a 240 or a 280.

Can you exchange the cooler with something that has a smaller radiator? Either that or swapping the case for something that accepts a 360mm rad are your two best options here.

This was the answer I was hoping not to hear... I was going to return the cooler to newegg and get a different one, but there are around 45 dollars of fees, so I don't even think it's worth it. I may just get a new case... Do you know any good ones?
