logic zero how did you mount the rad to that position?

and do you have a better pictures etc thanks

Hey heres a pic for you, i used industrial velcro, it sounds naff but if done neatly you can take the rad out easily and it stays in place very well. Theres no need for fancy brackets etc, although this is my opinion and if you have the ability to do so then go ahead. Velcro just seems the best way IMO

velcro now thats intresting good idea. is the velcro on the bottom and the sides?

and if its on the sides how did you do it, thanks

My armour arrived today and ive "aquired" some 25mm velcro from work. Just in the process of cleaning my radiator then ill have a go with fitting it wednesday. Im not sure exactly where to place the velcro but ill have a play and see which seems to work best for me. Glad i dot the aly armour version its soo light compared to my old case

thanx m8, as Logic zero postesd , that velcro is excelent for mounting all kinds of hardware ie fans....look

for the rad i used a bit of left over 1/2 tubing, just squessed it pushed it in and when it expands again it really grabs the side of my rad and doesnt move.

cool that velcro idea is cool good job.

i just used tie wraps lol. so the fans are tie wrapped to the side of the case from each four corners so there dangleing in the air. no vibrations at all

You could screw the fans to the rad, then screw the other side of the fans to the case? I don't know how the fans are mounted, but that might work.

Logic Zero · 18 Jan 2007 at 16:10

The fans are normally attached to a HDD cage, so it wouldnt work

I put the velcro along the bottom and up one side, works a treat, give it a shot its pretty easy to do, just make sure everything is clean so it sticks together well.

Have fun

Okay, just in the LCS the rad is attached to the bays with screws from the looks of pics.

Logic Zero · 18 Jan 2007 at 22:08

Yeh on the LCS it has a whole different front end

Nearly got mine together now, the velcro works a treat! The big side fan got in the way of original tube routing so had make it a bit longer than i wanted. Also had a "great idea" this morning about some fan mounting and slip and put a hole in my radiator :eek:

. May of been able to fix it but got another one now
