Jhors2 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 So I watched the review of the 900D a few times from TTL. I am confused about something that I am interested in doing. I wanted to install a 480mm RAD in the bottom of this case, as well as one in the top, both push pull. However, if possible I also wanted to install a 30mm thick front 360mm or 240mm radiator. Is this possible? I want to retain the two front drive cages if possible, or atleast one. If I kept one of them I would still be able to run the tubing properly. I just haven't determined if I can fit a 30mm rad and a push fan setup with the air filter on the front of the case. Any help is appreciated!

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted July 30, 2013 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 30, 2013 This is the size of radiator used for the first 900D water cooling build in house: 240 Radiators (278x124x30)mm Only a set of fans though. You can put push pull, but none of the HDD cage will fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhors2 Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Thank you sir! Is the 240 just because the holes are offset weird on the third fan, is it possible to put a 360 in if the 3rd set of holes are drilled or only 2 sets are put in?

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted July 31, 2013 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 31, 2013 3rd set of holes are there. It should fit 360 rad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e29gr8t Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I have a 40mm rad on the bottom, will I be able to do a push pull on that size? I notice a 30mm was used on that build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice a 30mm was used on that build. Yes, it will fit but the set of fans right next to the PSU will have barely enough room for airflow.

LennonNZ Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I have a EK XTX480 (64mm) down the bottom (connected to 2 TITANS) with push/pull with SP120 QE PWM (25mm each) and there is not much clearance to the Power Supply Fan (AX1200i) but it works fine. I also have XT480 (47mm) (connected to 4770K CPU) up the top as a XTX is about 5 mm too thick with push/pull with SP120 QE PWM (25mm fans) and the bottom fans hit the motherboard. With 8 fans on each Radiator the fans run at their lowest speed all the time quietly and only have to speed up a little (and speed up the pump a little) if I max the TITANS out number crunching. (all done with Corsair link + 5 cooling nodes of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lolroflmaoomg Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 so does having a 480mm up top mean you totally lose that top 5.25 tray? or is there room for a short front panel? do you lose it also if you went with a 420mm up top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
