hi there

dont think you will get XSPC EX240 120mm Radiator up top......i would measure the gap you have at the top, between the main board and top of the case.......i would say a 30mm rad at most up top.....unless your going to modify the 600t........

Definitely measure first.

Also, your sig is too big ;)
 
Really want to avoid getting out the dremel. If I was going to start cutting would look at getting a 360 slim up there.

Its why I was looking at the black ice slim. Combined with the extreme 200 it should have enough cooling to run the 2600k at 4.7ghz and an overclocked 7970.

But it needs to be quiet as well lol

What's the max thickness?

Top of radiator mounting bracket on the case to the edge of the motherboard is 30mm.

But from the edge of the case to motherboard is 10mm and edge of case to mounting bracket is 40mm so I think I can go up to 35mm which takes it quite close to the RAM sockets and CPU fan.

So the res (which I forgot to add) would be the 150 advance.

Only reason I didn't go for the alpha cool was I was trying to get all the gear from one place :)

Asus I can pick up new for around £360, found it a nightmare finding a reasonably priced reference 570. Looked at the 6950 but again most seem to be non-reference and really want a full gpu block.


Also noticed I only need 2 gentle typhoons :)
