I recently bought an NZXT Kraken x61 cooler for my AMD Fx-8350, nontheless, my case will not be able to house this cooler without some modding, so, how can it be done? I have a dremel in my possesion so that kind of stuff should not be too much, but, where would i mount it, and how? I also got myself some NoiseBlocker B-BlackSilentPro PK-3 140mm, http://www.amazon.com/Noiseblocker-NB-BlackSilentPro-140mm-Ultra-Quiet/dp/B004JUCNUW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409757794&sr=8-1&keywords=noise+blocker+140mm

I bought two of these so I can replace the stock fans with the quiet noiseblockers :) That should work out fine right?

Anyway, I just need to know how to mod the HAF 912, where to mod the HAF 912, and what to do. Thanks in advance to anyone who answers!

Assuming it physically fits up top you could put it there. Would just have to make your own screw holes.

I don't imagine it will fit in the front.

Why didn't you just get a 240mm radiator? Would have fit in without any modification.

I didn't get a 240mm because I did not have to want to upgrade a cpu cooler when i upgrade a cpu (will more than than likely be an Intel Haswell-e processor. Probably a 5930k or a 5960x... And I want to overclock a lot, so I would rather buy a good one now and not worry later :)....and modding should not be a problem, I have a family skilled in this stuff, and i know my way around things like this, hope I can get some really nice overclocking out of my current cpu and some really good overclocking out of the haswell-e cpu.
