I'm trying to figure out if this will work or not. I was cleaning my kitchen today and as I looked at this nice little box a light bulb turned on. I'm planning on using it for either a Danger Den Black Ice Pro 3 or an Xtreme 3 radiator. But the dimensions of the breadbox are right at the limits of the websights measurements of 397mm length (396 to 397mm x 160mm x 145mm). So I called Danger Den and asked them if this 397mm is from the 1st to the last fin or the measurements of the extremeties of the rad. They supposedly had some guy measure it out in inches (I guess they can't convert very well over there), and he said for the Pro 3 it was 15 1/2 x 5 3/16 x 1 3/16 which turns out to be just under the website measuments in millimeters. They did say this is the outer extemities of the rad.
I'd also like to put the D5 pump in there as well as I measured closely using my 19" lcd with a pic from their websight and it seems as though the D5 is right around 145mm in height. I think this would provide great ventilation for both the pump cooling and radiator cooling as well. And it would look nice. Does anyone have one of these radiators and could you tell me if the outer ends of these radistors exceeds 396 or 397mm?
