rad drain port in way of base of case

[UkayJ]

Hi, trying to mount radiator inside front of case to the cases frame but the drain port is clashing on the base of the case, raising it too high to align with fixing holes of case.

Should I try drill a hole for the drain port to fit in to OR buy a rad with no protrusions on the bottom? (if there are any)

I'd drill a hole mate. What rad and case is it?

Alphacool NexXxos UT60 rad and Fractal Design 1300 m-ATX case.

Yeah I was planning on drilling it but I need a new pump and res (going to get a combo) and CPU block as I cracked it over tightening barb.

So thinking of just getting a new rad too.

This one : EK-Coolstream RAD XTC 280 has really low clearance at the bottom, plus mine is only 240mm so I get that extra bit of cooling power.
