[USER=135]@Boil[/USER], love the creative and powerful builds that are being envisioned!


Testing dual rads is best experimented with in practice where we can feel the tension of pipes and deal with imperfect cable lengths etc. Also, it is likely the entire system will work with only 2 120mm fans instead of 4 - just like the ONE is "sharing" fans between the radiators, but we will try to get 4 fans to fit! When this is confirmed in practice we can do a rendering of it and show some real pictures.


When we first set out this project, finding a way to mount AIO in a space efficient way was our first ambition (I could show you images of our very first prototype that was intended as a proof of concept) we were not even thinking of crating something that looked good, that came much later. We quickly realized that the most space efficient way to was to run pipes right above the memory sticks. On the GPU-side the pipes will likely have to run above and around the GPU on the back to down to the bottom. If this is the case we will add slots for stripes in the blade to hold pipes in place.


Predator rad is tall, so bight be a good solution when using double radiators and one set of fans. Vertical space of the L TopHat is currently set to 56,5 mm, probably the easiest thing to adjust, but remember you can stack them and create XL, XXL etc.


For now we can show you these two OLD renderings of the L TopHat with 240 AIO installed to illustrate clearance and tubing. Remember this is the not the latest design.

(Pardon the poor resolution)
