Water cooling Questions

frazzle247 · Mar 25, 2014

I am planning to buy a Corsair H60 from Scan soon and I just want to confirm a few things. I have never had a water cooler and this would be the first time. I have read about them I just want to confirm some things:

can I put it on the back of my case under the PSU?

Does it have thermal Paste pre-applied?

Will it be stable on the back of my case or will it fall? Sorry if these are noob questions I am very paranoid and don't want anything to break :/

CiT Knight, Black Interior, Midi ATX with 500W 12cm Black PSU. I swapped out the psu for a Corsair cX500 because bundled power supplies are never that reliable.

based on what i have read the case has support for 120 mm/12 cm fans. The downside is that one is on the front and will almost have no chance of fitting a rad and a fan because of front panel and hard drives being so close to the 120mm chassis fan mount. The other 120mm fan is located the side of the tower and as such would be a pain in the butt every time you open your chassis. The increased movement of the pipes would possibly result in premature leakage.
I bought a 120v seidon at canada computers cause it was cheap60$(40$ after rebate) and it said something like universal installation. Unfortunately it didn't fit my case so i bought a zalmanz9 that had a 120mm port at the rear/top position. That mistake cost me 90 dollars. let that be lesson to me, read the specs.

Short answer yes but I wouldn't reccomend it
