Will a Black Ice Micro Duel radiator fit on the front intakes of a Lian Li using the screw holes or will it be off?

The two front fans are not really side by side (there's a space between them) so I'm afraid the fan holes will not correspond to the BIM2 rad holes. On the other side my PC-70 has two 80mm fan outlets (where you have one) really side by side (no space between the fans). You could cut a second 80mm fan hole just under the existing one and attach the BIM2 there. Better would be a shroud that adapts the two front fan holes to the BIM2. CD :) |
It will fit, and 4 of the stock screw holes will mount it, but the 4 on the other side don't line up. It's still more than enough to hold it in place. It just barely fits width wise. I am doing the same thing :)

But that's not my way of working... CD :) |
I've got a PC75B. I meatballed a BIM 2 into the area just above my PSU. You MIGHT be able to fit it in, but it's going to be close and you won't be able to use the drive cage. :shrug: You can go with something like a BIX or a core if you drill the top of the case though.

Alright I see I see. I was looking at the radiator and by the pic it looks like their is a space inbetween the holes, wasnt sure. I could do, possible, the hole right below the exhaust on the fan hole but thats going to be a weird place to put my radiator with all the current blocks. Im going for a CLEAN look. Trying to keep the Lian Li stock as possble... kinda like a sleeper look for cars :p But what should I do. I tried 6 of my heatercores and none fit at the top of the case.... What "radiator" would fit and cool 3 blocks.

Well, I may drill holes, or I may not depending on how I feel considering the fan filter conceals it anyway. If using 4 instead of 8 screws makes me semi ghetto, then go on and toss me a 40.
I dunno, you be the judge if I'm ghetto, check my project log. It's a project in its infancy, but should give you an idea of my work. Also, Red Phoenix, this thread may help you understand what issues you will run into mounting the BIM2 in the front. Bruce |

I recommend not to use the fan filter. Fan filters are bad for air flow, especially when used on a rad (I removed mine too). Keep your room clean of dust as much as possible, put the case on a desk (not on the floor) and clean the rad/fans regularly. I would construct a small rectangular shroud that adapts the two front fan holes to the exact dimensions of the BIM2 (and even transform the two round fan holes to one rectangular hole), then attach the BIM2, and eventually add another shroud between BIM2 and the two (pulling) 80mm fans.
