EK-Coolstream SE240 (Slim Dual) Radiator question.

nathanjayrussel · 26 Sep 2016 at 23:11

Hey guys,

Could someone who owns this radiator do me a huge favor and let me know the distance between the top of the top fan mounting holes and the end of the radiator (basically how much the port section of the radiator sticks out from its mounting holes).

I am trying to determine which radiators fit in the Fractal 804 Node with the ports at the bottom of the case instead of the top.

Cheers, Nathan.

Does this help?

Looks like 33.5mm from the image.

Perfect, thank you!

I was looking for this image but couldn't find it, clearly your googling skills are better than mine

Checking the manufacturers website usually helps

Also why the EK Se rad? I only ask because in most of the reviews I've seen the EK slim rads are some of the worse performing rads out there, the HWL GTS slim rad beats it by a margin.

I opted for the HWL ~~GTX~~ GTS X Flow rads personally, but they're about 5mm thicker I think.

14mm thicker. They are optimized for medium to high speed fans or push and pull. Excellent radiator though.

For anyone who wants to read the review, it's mainly for 360mm rads but they also tested others. http://www.xtremerigs.net/2015/02/11/radiator-round-2015/

Typo on my part, I meant GTS

Lol nevermind. How do you find that rad?

I'm choosing the SE240 because I need something fairly slim. With the SE I will have 1mm to spare... So a tight fit as it is.

I see no worries fella I was just curious.
