My case is a Thermaltake Tsunami and i have never seen such a large rad on/in this case before. does anybody have any Ideas where I can mount my Radiator without loosing Motherboard connectors? I was conscidering Underneith the case between my wheels and Chassis. Any other Ideas? Thankyou In Advance. Your help is appreciated.

Re: Help Needed
Build a rad box.
Have a seperate box to house your rad and fans and a resivoir/T and your pump. |

Re: Help Needed
I Dont need a Rad Box. As Stated in the first post, I want the Radiator to be on or In the case, Not in a seperate enclosure. I was thinking about mounting the fans to the bottom of the case then the rad below them, and using u shaped brackets to mount my wheels. What do you guys think?

Re: Help Needed
that'll work fine. Just be aware that filtering the core might be useful if its on carpet, you'll have huge amounts of dust.
