Topic title really says it all. I haven't tried it yet as the system is still in pieces, but wanted opinions on overall weight/resonance.
I'm installing an H100 into a custom top for my lian li pc-7b+. The all-in-one unit where the tubs comes out is about 1cm too long (hits the rear, top mounted psu).
The plan is a push/pull setup with ap-15's, two will be mounted to the top of the case, two mounted to the bottom of the radiator. With the radiator's 'rear' 120mm's forwardmost 2 screws being connected to the 'front' top mounted fan's rearmost 2 screws.
That's it for connecting the radiator/fans to the case. So is two screws enough? I mean, these fans aren't heavy, and it's a 2x120x25mm radiator.
I don't know if I feel that it would be totally secure.
So option two involves getting some extra long 6-32 screws go (from the top down), through the top, the grill, the fan, a 1" vertical spacer and then right angle connect to a 1" steel plate with a hole for connecting the radiator to.
