-0GAZ0- Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) Hi Guys, new to the forum, always followed the corsair path for the quality and reliability, soon as i saw the Hydro X range released i knew it wouldt be long before i took the plunge ;): only issue is had was my case was the 280X. I wanted to keep this case as it fits on the shelf in my very small room plus the fact i love it :) i decided to cram a hydro X install into it, so to anyone wondering, yes it all fits :biggrin: this is my 1st time with hard tubing, i am awaiting more fittings as already i want to change this with more fittings rather than tube bends, due to the case being small, tighter bends are required.

BladeOne Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 NIce build. Is the front rad 280mm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 That is a very clever mod to install the pump/rez. Care to share what you did to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-0GAZ0- Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 NIce build. Is the front rad 280mm? no its a 240, i already had 240 fans so had to go down that route but a 280mm would've fitted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Devbiker, No mods at all! with the XD5 having an adjustable height i just moved it up using the supplied bracket and did away with the front roof fan and put a 140mm fan in the rear roof. i could infact lower the pump if i cut the bottom section of bracket off and possibly squeeze another fan in but happy with it as is.

-0GAZ0- Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) updated the tubing a bit more with some tighter bends and managed to squeeze in a flow meter :) [/url] the flow meter is lit by a cut down corsair light strip :) Edited September 9, 2019 by -=0GAZ0=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestokells Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Hey! love the set up, have you got a parts list of what you've used? I also have a 280x and have been interested in putting hydro x in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
