Vapochill LS Instalation.

rapty · 19-December-05, 12:16 PM

Received my Vapochill LS today I'm just about to fit it to my Thermaltake Kandalf but I'm not sure to fit it to the bottom where I will have to cut a hole and I don't have any cutting instruments also note that it wont fit flush with my case as its so damn big and I can see this process being a big pain in the fkin ass. or drill a hole through the side of the case window for the wires which seems from my point of view a more sensible way about it.

What do you guys think?

Time to buy a dremel or hole saws!

Make a cardboard template of it and then use that to draw out what needs to be cut.

Or... just get a bigger case

I think from what he said that the case may be to big to mount flush on the Vapochill.

Try placing the vapochill on top of the case and invert it.
Or create a wood frame for the case to rest on (And the vapochill to fit inside) Or if the Vapo is too big, create a wood platform for it to rest on the vapochill and bolt it to the case of your system.

Because routing it through one of the side panels would be a mistake as you'd have to disconnect the evaporator head from the cpu each time you needed to remove that panel to access your system.
