Will D-tek pro heatercore fit in CMStacker?

mgoode · Jun 3, 2005

anyone install a d-tek pro heatercore in one of these baby's? i am thinking about upgrading from my tsunami case. i had to take ou the HDD cage to put my heatercore in the front and wonder if it will fit in a stacker without modificatations.

ive seen a few people with a dual 120mm heater core up front in the stacker. cant remember the heatercore brand, if you do a search im sure you'll find it.

if you mean the current one it's 5.5" wide, which is less than the width of a 5.25" bay, so it will therefore fit.

the dteks are a jr120 i think. i use them in some of my rigs .

while i havent used the stacker with the core , it should fit without problems since its really isnt that large.
if oyu are willing to do some minor modifications its gerenteed to fit

The Chevette heatercore will not fit in a CM Stacker without some mods to either the heatercore or your Stacker. If I recall correctly the DTek Procore is just a pre-modded Chevette core, no?

I ended up getting a BIX2 which fits nicely up front. There are cheaper and better performing double cores out there though that fit perfect in a Stacker.

-EDIT- Ha! Saw my sig in my post and noticed what my old rig was.. shows how long it's been since I've wandered by the boards... Pro Core won't fit..

the old Pro-core was indeed a chevette core (and thus too big....) - it was discontinued in march 2004...
the new Pro-120 is smaller:
Dimensions (with tanks) are 5.5"W x 6.38"H X 2"Thick.

easier fitting is the reason why they changed......
