Jay.Co Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Hi there you all, Just got into gaming on my PC with driving games F1 2010 been my latest :D: Anyway i have a iBox case found here... http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=221068 So i have some good fans on board but inside seem's to be getting very hot and got me thinking about the above cooler :idea: What im going to be doing is mounting the radiator on the outside of the case as im limited to space. My question are.... could the pipe's be removed from the unit to able me passing them through the back of the case.. And.... what length are the tubes and if to short could i use some new different length tubes to replace the standard one's Thanks up front :cool: Regards, J.

And.... what length are the tubes and if to short could i use some new different length tubes to replace the standard one's that will void the warranty. maybe the H70 is not the best solution for that cube case.

Jay.Co Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 that will void the warranty. maybe the H70 is not the best solution for that cube case. What would you recommend then Buddy I take it that it would come all set-up ready to fit in the case with tubes already connected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthohol Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 would you have the room for one of Corsair's Air Coolers? http://www.corsair.com/products/a70/default.aspx http://www.corsair.com/products/a50/default.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a £100 limit to spend on what ever i need best to suit so any other ideas be great buddy.. Thanks for your time, J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wired Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 When the H50 first came out it didn't come with the AMD bracket, but that was a long time ago. Unless they've got stock sitting around from like a year ago, it'll have a universal bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay.Co Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 Hi All, I'm sorted :D: Yes ordered the H70 and thanks to this forum i come across a case :bigeyes: ...well i wasn't looking for a case as i thought i was happy with the case i have....... Anyway... now looking into buying this http://www.corsair.com/products/600t/default.aspx and the price for such a good looking case... well what can i say apart from.. DEAL :D: I would off ended up upgrading the case later on when i have enough funds to buy a Asus Crosshair III Formula AMD 790FX Socket AM3 DDR3 Motherboard and CPU upgrade to AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Six Core 3.2GHz Socket AM3 BLACK Edition My memory is Black edition already and with the 790FX chipset i can look into the AMD AOD feature . Anyway ill stop dribbling on and carry reading through the forum ;): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
