Can I mount my AIO radiaor like this ?

Dear members,

Can I mount my radiator like this?

Seems like the only way I can fit some biggers radiators inside my BeQuiet! Silent Base 800 case.

There's no grill that'd obstruct the airflow but fans wouldn't be attached to the radiator but have
this case's frame in between. Is that allowed?

Thanks!

Ari

Sure. I see no issue.

Thanks again, Scott!

View attachment 164568It's got to be better than this ! I had to cut a hole in the side panel and ventilate the metal arm with a Dremel. LOL Keeping my FX 6350 at 34 C right now though.

Looks awesome Alaric.

I'm actually gonna try to mount the fans above and the rad below the frame. Measured the whole thing yesterday, got something like 40-45 mm clearance above the motherboard (assuming I'm gonna put 140 mm fan / rad).

Thanks! Necessity being the mother of invention and all. With your rad inside the case it would be safer from accidental damage. As long as you don't stick a finger in the fans....
