Hello all,

I haven't been following the WC scene lately and have managed to acquire a Lian Li A-10 in black in good nick. Just minor scratches and cosmetic damage really.

My plan is to WC the cpu and I would like to go custom using the XPSC 700 bay res + pump combo but the position of the radiatior seems tricky to work out.

I could put at the back but it just feels like it will be too close to the cpu. Theres a vent at the top but the motherboard sits quite close to the top edge of the case. Certainly no space for rad + fan combo.

Any ideas ?

Do you have the A10 or are you buying one?

Do you use all the drive bays? can you afford to lose the bottom ones or the midd ones?

If so i would either put a 240 in the bottom instead of the HDD's or in the front.

Also I would consider a separate pump. Those XSPC pump combos don't have the longest life span. Bay res and a small 2.2 or 4.0 pump from EK would be enough for a CPU loop.

I already have the case. Picked it up for like £45 which was a bargain.

I could put a 240 at the front but that would use up all the cd rom bays

I'm not sure theres space where the HDD bays are for a 240 will need to measuer properly.
