I can't wait to see what it finishes out to. I'm currently considering a WCing setup. And I have a similar build to you. (I could probably mount my RAD internally though.)

I originally didn't want to do an internal Rad for two reasons.

1. No space
2. Too much modifications needed to the case

A back mounted rad really is the best way to go with an Antec 900. It's not exactly a perfect case for supreme watercooling. If only they made 200mm square Rads....

I've mounted mine in the front right behind the bay covers with very little modding actually. You do lose 2/3 of your bays tho

hurrp

Mines on the back, all i needed to do was take of the fan grill. id get some 90 degree fittings for the rad if you do put it on the back though

Yeah I can't afford that. I have a whole 3 slots full with three hard drives on the bottom bay and 2 of the slots in the top bay with CD/DVD Burners. I can only afford to use up the 3 slot space in the middle bay (which is where I will mount the pump).

See, I have 1 hard drive/1 optical drive. So losing 6 bays/slots/2 sections wouldn't be a problem. I think the Front fans and a back fan on the RAD would have a great push/pull config. I'm sure it would require some cutting though...
Just so I don't thread jack. I'd like to know what you did, could you PM me pics of what you did?

How do the rads mount exactly? I figured they'd take screws like the fans do...assuming I'm wrong though. (Again...trying not to thread jack. So PM me unless the OP has any questions/or if this could help the OP.)

here is my set up
D-TEK FuZion V1 CPU Block
Swiftech MCP655
Swiftech MCRES Micro Reservoir
Swiftech MCR320-QP
DD-Tieton for GTX280
Primo Chill blue UV tubing 7/6"ID 5/8" OD
3 Ultra Kaze 120mm 3,000RPM Case Fans

I had to cut a few things and drill a few holes. I used brackets I bought a Lowes to mount the radiator. (had to use 2 L-shaped brackets to make a U shaped bracket.) it do-able for sure. 1/2" barbs all around. the fans are pushing air in to the radiator, I flipped all fans. so the exhaust is pushing air in and the intakes are pushing air out. the top big boy is pushing air in. it works well. folding with the kaze fans at 1500 rpms and all the case fans (3 120mm and the big boy) at low on a Q6600 (B3) at 3.355 and my GTX 280 SC running stock core and memory with shaders at 1537 I get max temps of 56 on my cpu and 68 on my gpu. on high speeds (my fan controller CAN'T put the kaze at 3,000 rpms its more like 2750, 2800, and 2750) i get cpu at 50 and gpu at 56. so at medium speeds i would say split the difference. ambient is at 36. at idle temps are...who knows if fold.....sorry fellas not for OCN. but i love ocn dont get me wrong

Great pics Carlitos714. Proper good job.

One question though; why do you have the fans blowing through the case and not away from it? Wouldn't it have been better not to flip the fans and just mount them the opposite so all the hot air goes away from the case and not through it?
