I actually bought that case for this purpose about 18 months ago
Could not get the rad to fit in the roof,it was fouling the mobo

Cases should state the thickness of rad compatable at the top.

Would still have been annoyed getting a case that states it Take a 240mm rad

Sold it to a m8 for slightly less than i paid as it was new condition and a nice case apart from i could not fit the rad at the top

It is possible to fit a 240mm AIO in the front of the case. I had to remove my USB 3.0 front panel connector.

I know u already sold this case but I want to leave this here in case anyone is looking for this topic.
