How many radiators can be fitted into a 600t? Thinking of watercooling my cpu and ref 6970 but not sure on the best way to go, 240 in the roof will that to the trick for both and keep them cooler than on air?

Cheers for any replies in advance.
 
Was that bluedragon? I'd love ot have the bag to do that but i dont want to dremel my beautifull new case :3 if i can stuff a 240 in the roof and a 120 in the back that will do, wouldnt mind 2 240's though.

Ah ok, IIRC, a 240 in the top and another in the front fits. Can't remember ATM though i'm afraid
 
logs are always good.

I am just about to do a watercool in my 600t with CPU and maybe 6970 as well.

I am planning a 200mm in the front, and a 240 in the roof, and maybe try and squeeze a 120 in the rear.

Alternatively, mod the roof to fit a 360mm rad, which is not too difficult.

i have also seen a 240x240mm in the front of a 600t which looked amazing but quite a lot of effort.

People who say this is a bad case for water cooling are so wrong :p
 
JUst measured up there is space for 2 240mm rads like in the cooler master CM690 II one in the bottom where the drive cages are and one in the roof. Thivk one in the bottom but i wouldnt know the best way to cool them as you stick a couple of fans on but the are no grills in the bottom, unless you turned the fans to they blow up (mounted under the rad?) and have the front intake as an exhaust?
 
if its the same size as the 650D then you can fit two with minimal modification.. a 240 up top and 200 in the front

Maybe a 200 there instead?
 
Been looking at this for a couple of weeks as I have a 600T as well. With help from Cleeecooo.

I don't want to mod the case so basically it is down to a 240 at the top of the case with gentle typhoons on push. At the front a 200 with the current 200mm fans from the case on pull/push.

120 exhaust fan is a 1450rpm gentle typhoon.

Going on the 120 for each component that is more than enough with room for expansion.

I reckon the XSPC will fit up the top as it is 35.5mm, failing that the Magicool 240 slim is 30mm and will definitely fit...

Why not push pull through it, I am going to have a spare 200mm fan so I might as well have it push pull exhausting out of the front of the case. Unless the barbs(?) interfere with push pull then I will leave it.

I am now just trying to figure out if it would be possible to have a 240 in the bottom.
I am just thinking than the air pulled in through the 200mm fan at the front would flow under the rad (id raise it slightly) and be pulled through by the fans on top, then extracted by the rear 120mm exhaust fan and the 2 120mm's mounted on the top 240.

Then again i know NOTHING about watercooling so if there is no real gain from the extra 40mm of the 240 over a 200mm then I will leave it.

What would you reccomend, the top 240 for the cpu front 200 GPU? probably woul get a dual bay res d5 pump and no idea what cpu block or full cover 6970 block.
 
240 wont fit in the bottom unless you mod the 5.25 bays

you can mount the 200 to the 200mm screw mounts on the front mesh if its the same as the 650D, I have specifics in my build log
 
Been looking at this too. Here's a pretty cool 600t

Probably enough room for another 240 at the top if you did this. (Might be a squeeze though)
 
im going for a 240mm at the top , 200mm at the front and a 120mm at the rear.......ive seen the 200 front rad mounted to the fan mount and the fan onto the rad.......hopefully this will be ok for cpu and 2 x 6950s........just unsure which pastel colour to go with......might get the new yellow when its out........

dont know wether to go with a bay res and built in pump or bay res with a seperate pump, or just go with the ek dcp 4.0 res and pump combo.......

If you use the 120mm per component rule

3 X 120 = 360mm
240 + 200 = 440

you have 80mm spare without mounting the third 120mm rad
