Now that the front panel extender is available….
Wondering if I can fit a 45mm 280 rad in the front with 25mm fans and still be able to put the EK TBE120 pump res combo in the front next to the power supply. Was thinking about swapping out my Corsair XR5 280 rad for the Alphacool HPE-45 280 or with the Bitspower Leviathan II 280 40mm. What do you guys think? Will I see any significant improvements with the thicker rad? Unfortunately, my GPU waterblock is a little too thick and tall (Alphacool 7900XT) to add a second rad on that side. Not to mention it takes away from the great looking waterblock.
For reference my components are
- Asrock B650i Lightning
- Optimus Foundation CPU block
- AMD Ryzen 7800X3D
- Sapphire Reference 7900XT with a Alphacool Eisblock block
- EK TBE 120 pump res combo
- Corsair XR5 280 rad
- Thermaltake Toughfan Pro 14 fans x 2
