Ok cool thanks a lot for the advice, it looks like the 120 kit would suit my needs well as my case has a few 120mm fans in it already.

or xspc kits

Swiftech Apex kit gets my vote too, easy to install and mine went in leak free first time

Looks like a Swiftech for me then. Will it be an easy install into my Sonata 2 case?

if you follow the instruction guide the RAD is mounted outside the case so it shouldnt be a problem

I mounted my rad outside the case which made things for me A LOT easier. Just have a drimmel and the rest is easy

Ok well I do not have a dremel but fitting it outside of the case makes it sound a lot easier than queezing it inside.
