Yeah... Luckily I have some good people showing it off. It is a great feeling to get the kind of response it got!

I was thinking the first one, but that second one would work as well!

ill get the case later this week hopefully
Above the top panel he may have done it but not below, due to the cable management bar that is in place. There is only 35mm of spacing there.

the problem I had is that with the boxy way ek rads are made, it caught on the top panel. You may not have the issue, but that was me

Yup, the case came today, it simply won't fit so i'll have to send it back for a 30mm rad.

The pum/res combo is a super tight fit. 0.5 more mm and it wouldn't fit at all, the top res fan basicly rests on it. Im not able to fit it on the back 120mm fan slot because the other top rad fan is in the way there. Not sure how to fill the system tough, probably could do it by removing the top fan and the top plug in the res and then slide in a straw squeeze bottle.
I'm unsure since this is my first watercooling build but it looks like i will be able squeeze the fittings in on the front rad.

Loop in this config will be Pump/res -> GPU -> CPU -> Top rad -> Front Rad -> Pump/res

I got 5 fans into the build so you can do it, just have to move things around. I used the SE in teh top and the PEs in the front. As for filling the loop... grab a valve and get an inline T for it and use it as a drain/fill port. thats what I did. I'll get a video up soon so you can see the actual loop.

Nice build! I have a similar build in the same case. I managed to fit a 280mm radiator at front, a 240mm at the top and a 120mm at the back. So hopefully two 140mm fans produce more airflow than 3 120mm fans so I'll have a slight positive airpressure!
