Noob needs help

Hey!

I have a Zalman Z11 Plus with water cooling holes in the back, is it possible to detach the pipes from the radiator in an all in one water cooling unit to run it through the holes in the case? Cheapo unit like a Corsair Hydro 120? (https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Hydro-Performance-Liquid-Cooler/dp/B00FZHWFEW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1476269181&sr=8-1&keywords=watercooling&th=1)

Guess so, but don't see any good in doing so.

Just for ascetic tidiness, so pipes do detach and reattach easily? Or is it a getto thing?

No. Not without high risk of leaks and such.

Some "AIO" units however have the ability to do this so you can expand your loop.

Swiftech H220 would be my recommendation if you want to do this.

If not, your only option is custom loop.

Hope this helps

It may work, but there is an increased risk of leaks and fluid loss leading to it breaking.

My good sir, that is fantastic! Thank you very much. I don't suppose you know if one that is 120mm and has the same detachment feature?
