space case

[scotoma]

Hi does anyone know if there is room for a water cooler fan and radiator to fit between the harddrive bay and the front of the case? I am mainly interested in the coolermaster 201, but if you know of any others that this is possible please list case and cooler. Thanks.

is your radiator smaller than 120mm? because 3.5" is not wide enough for that, you'd need a CDrom bay for that. it also depends on the dimensions of your fan and radiator depth-wise. usually they're both 25mm, which gives 50mm total, PLUS you want room in front of your fan to let air get in. now, you will probably be able to move your hard drives farther back into the case (aren't there multiple mounting holes for you to do this?) but i still don't see it giving you the 60-70mm needed for the job
typical fan dimensions: 120x120x25
typical radiator dimensions: 120x120x25

I am thinking about the Swiftech MCR80-F it has 2 - 80 mm fans and a radiator. Like this: fan | radiator | fan
Basically, would there be enough room to mount the hard drive(s) after installing the above fan/radiator combo where the following fans are located? see link.
