Corsair 650d rad

Putting an order together for a corsair 650d and a 240 rad does anybody know if an alphacool xt45 plus fans 25mm deep will fit in the roof.
Hopefully someone will have done this

what motherboard do you have? its going to be very close if it has a heatsink along the top and you use the proper 120mm holes.

Some people just shift the rad more towards the side of the case and just mount it through the grill holes to get over the clearance issues

Motherboard is msi a85xa-g65 and it does have large heatsink, is it possible too mount it where the hard drive cages are if so I would put a monsta rad in

Yep, looking at that mobo the heatsink will interfere. You can put 240 rads in the front of a 650D, very poor design choice from corsair.

Looks like your only option if your set on that rad is to offset it towards the side of the case, it can look a little odd i'll see if i can find a pic.
