Antec 302 -- water cooling..
Hi, I’m dealing with a big decision. I have an Antec 302 case, an Ivy Bridge 3570K with Evo 212. I’m considering adding a H220 or H100 water cooler but lack space. In another forum post I mentioned I could install the 302 water cooler externally, and someone suggested that’s possible. They contacted NCIX.ca and said it wouldn’t fit because the space is too limited. Did they realize I wanted it installed outside? Are there any local shops in Surrey who can handle this? Also, is there another case around $80 that fits my P8Z77 motherboard and a dual radiator? Can I install a dual radiator outside the case on my Antec 302 without spending extra money?
The image displays a bespoke loop that differs significantly from an all-in-one design. The Swiftech H220 enables such customization because you can eliminate the tubing through holes and refill the loop, a feature no other current all-in-one model offers while still keeping warranty coverage. You should be able to handle the installation yourself; a few tutorial videos will be useful, and this one appears to be a solid starting point.
When you altered the case, it should accommodate either a tailored loop or an H100 within an Antec 300/302.
Just unmount your hdd bay and you'll have enough space for a 240 AIO.
