Installing heatercore into a stacker?

Tekko · 10-24-05, 09:51 AM

I finally got all the pieces for my loop(getting tygon at a decent price in Canada is a pain) but one thing got me stumped...I got a double heatercore with 2 weapon's shroud how do I go about mounting it? Since I got the stacker 810 I got 3 options, cut top and mount there, frontbay(if anyone got pics of that it would help) or rear exaust since they are 2x120mm. Which would be easiest and help get the best routing?

The rest of my loop will consist of a Iwaki 20-RT, original G4 and fusion HL(got a second one for when I go crossfire)

What core do you have?
Weapon's 302 will fit into the front bays, but the shroud requires a smidgen of trimming to clear.
The 342 is a bit too wide to fit without trimming the bay structure.

Does the 810 have the floor vent like the original Stacker?
Here is my TC-101 with the rad floor mounted (Weapon 342 w/shroud & mobo in BTX config))...

the 810 does have a floor vent trouble is that the PSU sits partially on top of it...the heatercore is the 302.

If you go to the Danger Den site they have a video of a guy doing an install of a radiator on a stacker.

Look in instructions and then the video portion.

It's a very basic install.

ive seen that too.. but he only holds it in with velcro.. so it wont be in the center.. but it does work ok.. i packed mine in with foam.. it dosent move at all and is very easy to get out when needed

on the 830 can you not put the PSU on top is it only the bottom?

the original stacker you can put the PSU on top or bottom.

on the 810 on can only put it at the bottom since top spot was taken up be dual 120mm exaust (crawl under desk) too bad the exaust and shroud doesn't match...it would have been sweet...
