Hey!
@Josh | NFC's new video really got my gears turning, leading me to consider my first water cooling setup. (DIY or otherwise!) The MO-RA3 looks like an excellent radiator, but with ~30mm fans on there (yes, I know I could use thinner fans) you're looking at a large ~3", 360x360 panel that you've got to put somewhere. I'm hoping to find a large radiator that is not quite as thick as the MO-RA3, perhaps one that's a little less large in terms of length and width, too.
Basically, I'm considering designing a case around a large radiator, but I'd like to design around a radiator that isn't quite 3" (even 2" with fans would make for a much smaller volume case!) thick and one whose dimensions aren't so much wider than an ITX or even MATX motherboard. I've done some poking around, but I don't really know how to shop for radiators, especially not specialty ones like the MO-RA3.
And, I'm assuming that a watercooling loop with something like a ~240/280mm * ~240/280mm, ~2" thick radiator+fan setup would be able to pretty comfortably (and quietly) cool even a high-end consumer-level setup, right? (Like, a R7 1700 + a GTX 1080 Ti.)
