Ok people got it today. Need to install into her my water cooling consisting on a PA120.3 and a unknown 120.2 rad.

The PA can go in the front one side, stood up, but do I need these or do they even fit (heard they dont fit the thermochil rads?)

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=7&subcat=187

My Corsair 520w psu, where it is to be mounted here is a grill below so you could mount in so the flow blows/suck(dont know which way Corsairs PSU flow) through the floor, shall I do this or shall I have it so fan point up into my case? the case is on wheels so whould get a fair amount of air under case.

Fans I have:

2X 80mm (for rear)
4X Yate loon Low speed
5X 120mm HDD bays http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=7&subcat=187

What fans should I mount where? push or pull? Shall I get a few more?

Im connecting to a Zalman fan controller which has 4 channel,s now I want to connect up more than 4 fans so I know I can link them, but how do you do this? cant cut the cables as I need the end connector to plug into fan unit if you know what I mean, how can I join them, can I use a connector block, but how do i keep fan connector on 1?

Any help would be great, I know theres alot there.

Thanks very much

As for Push/Pull it really becomes a matter of personal preference but I've always tried to keep positive pressure in the case when I've air cooled (more fans - or higher CFM - sucking in than blowing out). This allows me to put filters on the intake fans to keep inside case dust to a minimum.

When watercooling the only rule I've stuck with is that I've always put radiator fans to suck through the radiator (better than trying to push air through it) and always had them exhaust out of the case - no point of putting the radiator heat back into the case.

Good luck with your build, that's a sexy case.
 
Thanks

what ram sinks should I buy to go on my 8800GT 512mb GFX with my Fuzion GPU block? I dont have any, was thinking this was fine but imformed taht I should get some ram sinks, what should I get? (I dont mind paying alot, as long as its good stuff)
 
I have a nozzle kit for my fuzion CPU block and used the quad nozzle, is it worth using say the 4.5mm or 5.5mm(or any one?) nozzle in the fuzion gpu block?

Click to expand...

RAM sinks are RAM sinks for the most part. Look for ones with a lot of surface area and make sure to have some way air is going to move over them. They're a good idea but if the air in your case is stagnant they're just about useless.
 
16 Fans will be in her, so will be airflow I hope(all low speed fans tho really as want her quite)
