Lian Li PC-101 With Thermalright Ultra-120?

[johnnyr1]

Ok guys, this is the deal. I have the Lian Li PC-101 case, and will be using the thermalright Ultra-120 Heatsink.

If I position the heatsink to sit horizontally, how will that affect my airlfow? (example:

This is how the air is SUPPOSED to flow:

But since my heatsink (in order to fit) will sit horizontally, it will have to blow air directly UP or DOWN.

What do you think?

The case you selected if made by one of the best manufactures for modders and those who demand quality products...

That combo should work, like mp said, you can always remove the shroud if necesary, plus the LianLi cases are easy to mod too...

There is very little space between the motherboard and divider. I don't think the Ultra-120 will fit vertically.

Now, these guys are using a MicroATX board...but I don't know if that makes a difference.
