IAmSerge Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Hey all, I got my 450D case in on Friday, along with an H75, and put started putting it all together today. I'm running into an issue, though: I can't figure out how to hook up the H75 with both fans. When I mount the radiator and one fan from the top of the case, it comes within a centimeter from the 8pin connector on my motherboard, so it can't fit on that way. From the looks of things, if I try and mount it on the back of the case instead, the fan itself would hit the cooling head. It looks like I could attempt to mount it on the front of the case (or even maybe the bottom), but mounting it on the front would mean moving one of those wonderful 140 mms fans somewhere else, and it would just look awkward with a 140 below and the H75's 120s at the top. I'm a bit worried about trying the bottom, too, because I'm not sure if I can pass those cooling lines (or whatever they're called) past my graphics card properly, also worried that trying to do fan intake from the bottom wouldn't be very optimal. So, what I'm looking for is suggestions! Should I try mounting the top or back, leaving only one fan attached to the radiator, should I go for the front with both fans, but mismatching the 140mm, or should I see how it works on the bottom? EDIT: I am still interested in suggestions; however, for now, I found that I could mount the whole thing on the other side of the upper 140mm fan, so now I have the following: 120mm - radiator - 120mm - 140mm - front of the case Does this sound reasonable?
