Hadron Mods

[MrBobaFettish]

Hey guys, I love the extremely small form factor of the Hadron Chassis but not the limitations. I plan on doing a few mods to it and want to know what people think.

 

The first of which will be adding an exhaust fan, Given how small the case is my best option will be a 92 mm Noctua NF-B9. Please excuse the poor paint picture but I think the best placement would be ( The red area in the picture ) any suggestions on better placement? 

 

Also, I plan on removing the drive cages and mounting a very slim 120mm radiator, most likely an all in one system like a corsair h60. Not looking for extreme cooling just something that will do the job as I do not want air cooling. 

 

I got in Contact with Icemodz and he gave me the most amazing price on a sleeving job for the Psu along with shortening some of the wires. I would have opted to sleeve it myself, But it being non modular I didnt feel confident enough to crack it open and tinker around inside. Ill post some pictures in the next few days and would love some feedback.

Sweet! What size exhaust fan size?

Sweet! What size exhaust fan size? 

Im thinking 92mm, a 120mm is too large since the case is just over 6 inches wide. I have 2 of the Noctua NF-B9s in my prodigy and for a small fan they push a ton of air.

Good luck with that 120mm radiator. It will be interesting to see happen. The 92mm fan is a good idea too

Thanks! I think with the Hard drive cage removed it will just fit. Well at least on paper. We shall see

What if you had 2 80mm fans?  The case is narrow and should fit these two.

I was considering that, Im not sure. yet tho.

Imo think 80mm will be a waste of time and space to mount it as it is too small and doesn't move air as good as 92mm fan (and also noisier). Further more the 80mm will be about 3/4 occupied by the fan hub itself, not the blades, which doesn't exactly give a nice aesthetic.

Can't wait to see how this all turns out! I was contemplating on whether or not to get this case for the longest time! Like yourself I fell in love with how small it is; it's something that could sit right on your desk, but I decided against it because I couldn't find an AMD GPU that would fit in it

Not sure if this will be useful to you or not, but TimmyTechTV has also been doing something similar to you. In his case, he's trying to fit a H100i but anyway, hope you find this useful.

Im thinking about monting a screen in place of the window on this case any chance you can measure the window size for me? inches or mm would be great
