Right now its a dtek ProCore but I'm gona get a car heatercore eventually. I have the Kingwin KT424 case which is pretty much like the lianli PC65. It had two 80MM intake fans one above the other. I could mount my heatercore in front of the intake and the barbs would stick into the floppy drive openings. I'd than put my 120MM alu frame fan on with the dtek shroud pushing air in.

Would this work or would it just blow? I need to order a pump and some tubing and I'm good unless I find a pet store around here with a mag3...

That would work, but you could also put it in the top. I think it would get more airflow in the top, because it wouldn't be restricted by the small vents in the front of the case.

Yea but I've never cut a blowhole in my life and I'd rather not mess my brand new kingwin case that I love so much up :(

You're going to need to cut up the case no matter where you put the radiator, or it won't perform as well as it should.

Yeah don't worry. Cutting a holw in the case with a dremel is easy, just take your time. I did it myself for the first time last week and it turned out pretty good. You can use a CD as a guide since it's about the same diameter as a 120mm fan.
