Hey Guys,
I've had the v600FX case for a while now and have endlessly searched for a way to get an AIO water cooler in the case. The problem is that the case has a single 140mm outtake which is way to close to the 8-pin cpu connector, making it seemingly impossible to mount a radiator on the top, as shown here:

I was just about to give up and buy a different case for my water-cooling needs, when i came across this:

Somehow this Korean gentleman has managed to squeeze a H80 in this case. He has obviously used some kind of 140mm>>120mm adapter, but i have no idea how that has enabled him to fit the rad there without it obstructing the 8-pin? :s
I have searched Google endlessly for an answer to this, but have had no luck whatsoever.. So does anyone know how i can achieve this?
Thanks in advance

I suggest you drill your own set of 120mm layout mounting holes shifted slightly forward. Plug the cable in before you mount the radiator.corruptjelly wrote:Hey Guys,

Btw. the CPU power connector might be in a different place on the build you linked to.
