I am thinking how to best utilize the space on top of my PC for a radiator. I don't mind moding it, as long as I can cover the mod with the top cover seen here.
I have a 190mm x 320mm x 40mm space as measured in the links.
I was thinking pro's vs con's:
180mmx180mm = 32,400mm^2 I could do this by adding some screw holes and use either the "200mm" fan that comes with the case (seen in the pictures) I've heard these jumbo fans are not good for rad cooling. I may also be able to squeeze in a tiny 80mm next to it.
280mmx140mm = 33,600mm^2 This would require the most modification (cutting out a hole directly in the middle of the top of case) but I could use 140mm fans which I've been reading are better than "200mm" fans the case has on top for moving air through a radiator
240mmx120mm = 28,800mm^2 This requires zero modding the case is designed to hole this size radiator.
I estimate having about 450 TDP if these calculations are correct. I also could add 1x140mm rad in the back which the case is also designed to accommodate.
