I've decided to move the radiator from an external connection (Rad Box) -> Through PCI Slot to an internal location (Above CD Rom Drives)

I just need to know how this can be done what should I use to have the radiator hang there. Any tutorials would be great pics would be a bonus!.
 
It's going to be a pain in the ass to do it nicely. There's quite a bit of case cutting that has to be done. 2Fresh has some mounting hardware that should make it easier to mount the rad though.

The RadBox makes it easy...screw it into a 80/92mm fan spot, attach the fan and radiator. done.
 
RadBox takes up to much space in the back I want to conserve space hence the radiator at the top of the case. I know how to cut the case. I just need ot know how I can mount the radiator there without it falling :p
 
It pretty much depends on what type of radiator you have as to how you mount it. If you have a standard type of rad like BIX or Swiftech, all you heen to do is cut out your openings and mount the rad using the standard fan mounting holes. If you have a heater core type of rad, all you need to do is cut the opening and then get some long 6-32 threaded rods or screws and gently run them through your core and case., then secure with 6-32 nuts and washers.
