MarcParis Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hi all, I'm going to get one H50 as soon as it's available in France (during September), but i've questions about radiators dimensions. Actually I've one sugo SG04 and I've limited space..;) On one review : http://www.technic3d.com/article-923,2-corsair-h50-hydro-cpu-kuehler-kompakte-fluessigkeitskuehlung.htm I've found the following dimensions for the radiator : 150 x 120 x 22 mm It's pretty precise, especially depth of 22mm. Some others reviews mention 25mm but it's not a precise measure, just a quick estimation. In fact that's the dimension I truly need to know : depth of this radiator because at 22mm is perfect, but higher value will cause me some troubles..:D Please could you help me about this issue? Thank you in advance for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcParis Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Unfortunately the radiator does measure in at 25mm in depth. Ok thank you for your answer..:) At 25mm in total depth I need to modify slightly my ATX 24V connector..:D anyway I'll manage to put one H50 in my sugo SG04 even it will be closed..:) Second question : is it possible to put one 12mm or 38mm depth fan with screw supplied with H50?

campbelln97 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 38mm definitely not, the screws are not long enough. 12mm yes, but u will need to cut the screw down to the right length so it doesnt damage the radiator. are u not worried by static pressure from such a thin fan?

MarcParis Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Thank you for answer! in fact I'm not sure to do it because maybe it could work using 25mm fan. But in case it's not working, i could use 2 scythe slip stream 12mm in pushpull configuration...I would have 24mm depth instead of 25mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campbelln97 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 its shocking that its so tight that you are worrying about 1mm. is there any chance of mounting a fan outside instead of inside the case? this was my solution to low space inside: http://rztcpq.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pKOOwTQXTY0oFSrlcGoVo2X6mRtnPBvhfQ_l5t88Zv1Nw_CP1qwPCta6x1ajUQdZzxDPiH3xvpdsKVrl8WsJZKcu96hZu_3eO/11092009035.jpg from left to right: 120mm fan : radiator : 120mm -> 140mm fan adapter : case side : 140mm fan : 140mm -> 120mm fan adapter : 120mm filter.

MarcParis Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 i've already studied this solution, but it's not feasible. In fact on sugo SG04 you have 2x120mm fans on one plastic bracket on not metal one. There is no space for one additionnel 25mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcParis Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 EUREKA! In order to be sure i've not 25mm in depth I've devided to test available depth by putting one Noctua S12 that share same depth as radiator (25mm)...and results is : Perfect fit! I've tried to show you by one photo : http://nsa09.casimages.com/img/2009/09/11/mini_090911091235682732.jpg My mistake was to consider my ATX24 con was at the same level as front fan...in fact it's a bit below..;) I've preorderd one H50 and I hope this could people looking for acquiring H50..:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
