Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
The reason why you don't see people mount the fan under the rad is because it would force the unit's tubing into a very tight turn radius. I don't have the asetek myself but i've done my fair share of watercooling with soft and hard tubing...it looks like you might get a kink in the tubing since...
Do you have any idea of what additional mounting hardware (screws, ball joints etc) is necessary to attach Duke00's custom side panels to the case? I grabbed the files he posted for the design and will get it made locally. Any help would be appreciated!
