Hello,

I have the following build:

Motherboard: Asus Maximus Hero VII
CPU: Intel I7-4790K @ 4.00GHz c/ stock cooler se
RAM: G.Skill PC3-21300 2666MHz 16GB TridentX CL12
GPU: EVGA GEFORCE GTX970 FTW ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 PCI-E
HDD1: Kingston HyperX 3K SSD 120GB 2.5" SATA III
HDD2: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA III 3.5
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX650G 650W MODULAR 80PLUS GOLD

All of this on a Fractal Design Node 605. The problem is that now during the Spring / Summer (Portugal) temperatures are going high 30º or more, in the last few days with only 27º during World of Warcraft Legion Beta and WoD the CPU in load was around 98º/100º. My question is if there is any watercooling solution I can use with that case, since the room is too small to fit anything. I was wondering if I could use a Corsair H55 and mount the fan or the radiator on the outside side of the box as you can see in the picture: http://imgur.com/b7MAv0m.

Any help or any other cooling solution (preferably water) would be appreciated please.

Thanks.
 
Solution
I have installed 2 140mm radiators with fans outside my case.

I had r9 290x graphics cards and put corsair AIO coolers on them.

The immediate issue I can see is the length of the tubing and a hole to get the block into the case with the radiators outside. You might need to get creative and cut some holes.

Well yes I know, but it seems to be one of the AIO that fits this case even from the outside or is any other?

Is it possible to install from the ouside like I show in the picture?
