i have a 280mm aio in the fron already. the kraken x60 its 312.5mm and is extremey snug fitting the ex280 is 320mm. so ive to only find 7.5mm room.

Will probably take a dremel to the bottom of the case were the HDD bays used to be as its slightly raised.

I'm sure I've seen a build log on OCN where the guy (or girl) used a 280mm in the front. I'll try to find the build log for you.

(I've sent you an email by the way)

Thanks for all the feedback so far everyone.

Ill keep this updated with small amounts of progress. Im in process of saving for a new apartment deposit and rent so this is only 2nd on the list and when you need £1000 of w/c parts it sucks xD

Ill have the other 2 radiators soon, the Ex140 is out of stoock at the min. Once they arrive ill be keeping you all uipdated with the painting progress.

Likelyhood is one im in position for the full rebuild ill start a separate thread for my first w/c attempt with a lot better quality photos as well.

in progress. They arent 100% perfect as my first time trying. few inprefections. But with fans on etc thy will be mostly hidden.

Just a coat or 2 more paint and a little bit of sanding might fix a few of the imperfections
