Picking Rads

[RazorStorm]

As the title says, I can't decide between 2 rads. The chosen rad will be front mounted 

 

Rad 1. EK CoolStream SE 280 (28mm rad with 22 fpi)

Rad 1. EK CoolStream CE 280 (45mm rad with 16 fpi)

I want the thicker rad for better performance but according to fractals case dimensions, it has exactly enough space. as you can see in the image below, the gpu length is 270mm + a 45mm rad = the max length of 315mm.

I could play it safe and use a thinner rad, but will it be enough to cool an 8700k and 2080? it also has the advantage of more fpi, although it will be nosier. 

additionally, the thicker rad looks beast.

Thin fan on the bottom to avoid interference?

Put the fans behind the front bezel. I have the define S and I have a 420mm and a 360mm, the 360mm sits behind the front bezel.

Thick rad all the way. I have one and love it. Really want a third one so I can run two in my other rig. Wonna put my fans back inside the case so the filter can work. 80m rads are abit much some times.
