[SOLVED] Installing ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 72.8 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler into Fractal Design Torrent RGB ATX Mid Tower Case

[fall3n]

The case I have is Fractal Design Torrent RGB ATX Mid Tower Case and the cooling unit I have is ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 72.8 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler, the case has no top fans. Where do I put the fan part of the cooler in this case?

You got the manual, right? It's displayed on page 8:

@Phaaze88 oh thanks, my manual was still in the box. I did not realize those two large fans shown on the bottom in the picture, that come mounted ini the front could fit on the bottom. Thanks

btw, I see the instructions for removing the front fans, but I am not seeing any instructions for removing the bottom fans... any idea where I can find that?

Is that not the combination of page 30 and the diagram on the right side of page 29?
The tray needs to come out first.

Page 27 shows how to remove the two large fans from the front, but I do not see any explanation of how to access the screws in the bottom fans and remove the three medium fans from the bottom rack. I suppose I could leave the three medium fans on the bottom, but that is not what the instructions show.

but that is not what the instructions show.

I see 2 big head screws locking down the tray that the fans are screwed to.

that seems likely, but when I take those two screws out nothing new is exposed or comes out. What is supposed to happen after taking out the screws?

You can pull and slide the tray out.

@Phaaze88 quick question, should the little minifan be above the CPU or below the CPU?

 

[Phaaze88]

Above it.
