Right now I'm using one of these:

I was thinking of redrilling those 90 degree fan mounts so that they are 120mm apart (hold fan vertically instead of diagonally). Then drill 2 more so that there are four brackets holding the radiator. I would then mount the fans onto my radiator and then mount the fans onto the angle brackets.

I am planning to get a thermochill pa120.2 radiator which is about 3 lbs, and is 6 cm wide. In total the radiator will hang about 10 cm off the side and weight about 4 lbs.

Do you think this is viable? Will it be stable and not title or fall on it's side?
