EVGA 980ti Hybrid - Where to mount radiator in to "be quiet! Silent Base 800" case ?

Hello, so where i can mount radiator in this case, i want to do here (in front) http://postimg.org/image/khiqm2idz/ but maybe somebody have picture where and how exactly ?

You would have to remove the drive cages to fit the rad and fan at the front. You could also put it at the rear or top instead

Thanks but I don't want to put in the rear on top... So Evga Hybrid radiator is 120mm, so ok i have to remove one of drive cages, but this radiator exactly fit in hole? or need some extension ?

There should be holes for the radiator but you might want to ask Bequiet/EVGA support team and check if it will fit

It may be a tiny bit bigger than a 120mm fan but not much, I have mine mounted in the top 120mm spot towards the front but I have 3 120mm available up top, yours only has 2. I've seen them mounted inside those drive cages you were looking at, without removing the cages. He used some kind of black packing foam underneath and on top to keep it in place.

I was thinking about doing it that way at first but then the heat will be pushed back into the case and as cool as it keeps the card, there is a lot of heat being exhausted from that rad.

Thanks Suztera, i thing, i have to go and ask to Quiet - Evga support team.
And Reaper i think you speak about this black foam http://postimg.org/image/a8nrtp5ib/ But you see there is other case.

Yeah, that's the one I was talking about, it is a different case so the cage measurements might be different but it still might fit...my worry that way was putting all the heat back in the case, right in front of the intake of the card. But I think I asked that guy or another guy that had his down low up front if it affected temps and he said it didn't that much, so maybe it would work.

That case also has 2 140mm fans up front so like someone said ...remove one cage and remove one of the 140mm and put it there. The front of that case should have mounting holes for a 120mm also and that will fit just fine.

Yeah, i think if i don't find solution with drive cage space, then i remove one of front 120mm fan and put there radiator.
