when parvum bring out a ATX id be interested in that, but have had fun so far putting the S2.0 together but want to see the S2.0 extended, as might go for that for watercooling as i cant fit xflow rads in the s2.0 and have the loop how i want it, but the monsoons are good and yes reviews have indicated this, matt black and red are the ones i like but ocuk only do the chain gun ones.

Yeah, I had to source these ones elsewhere. Wanted to make sure I had plenty of 90 and 45 degree fittings as well as I'll more than likely need to use a few in the Parvum!

Does the 240 x-flow fit at the front of the s2.0? Was it just an issue with the rads being too close?

best to get more than needed to be on safe side, make sure you put plenty of pics up, id like to know how much you paid for the case though.yes i could have done xflow at the top but fan holes wouldnt allow me to do it at the front, but it was tight .

What was the issue with the fan holes? Aren't all 120mm radiators standard spacing? Or am I getting confused?
Soldato
120's are fine, there have been reported issues with the 80mm.

240mm rad xflow fits two 120mm fans, and when the rad goes against the fan holes due to the extended top and bottom spacing of the rad the fan holes where out but a good 5mm, could have used velcro to attached or just used a rad with port holes at one end which is what im gonna do, but if i upgrade the case then it will fit xflow at the top but not sure on the front, someone on here had same issue, thats how i found out.

Ahh OK. So the problem with fitting a x-flow in the front is just a clearance issue between the front and top rads?

paulm71, do the middle 4 holes still align correctly? If so, Id've thought the rad would hold with just those 4 in place

yes plus the distance between the floor panel and the first fan hole mount at front which is 24mm.

not sure you would have to try.
but if the bottom dont match then the others wont.

yes had probs with the enermax 80mm as there 82mm not 80mm as stated in description so had to get me drill out and re-align.

see this but if your got the extended it might be different, i dont know the size of the case, so might be wrong in what im saying, you wont know until you get it but there easy to mod, as i had to do mine to fit 82mm fans in.

I understand now. I imagine I'll have the same problem then if its distance from the case floor to the first set of fan holes on the rad. Was hoping to use both x-flow rads but looks like it's going to be the gts 240 in the front then

as i said this is how i wanted it but after a lot of research i think thats the best option, which is why i went for the H100i to get started then get the bits i needed as could measure up properly without the hassle of sending parts back.
