I am going to buy nzxt phantom 530, but cannot find anywhere how thick radiators it support.

 

 

I am going to get at least 360mm + later 280/240mm rad later for gpu.

 

I will cool:

i5 4670k

gtx 770 (maybe another too, who knows!)

 

 

 

So how thick and what fpi rad + fans should I get for that setup while having some airflow for mobo vrm.

-edit, ah maybe not. (usually is when TTL does the reviews himself)

Apparently it can support thick radiators and you can put the fans above the mounting mechanism for the radiator. i can't find anywhere that says supported radiators though. Maybe you could search for some build logs to check it out

Alphacool (XT or UT series) + Scythe Gentle Typhoons, can't go wrong :) unless Noctua's color scheme matches yours...o__o then get noctuas :)

I'd go low fpi (~10) so you can undervolt the fans and enjoy peacee
