I can't figure this out... I realize this is how most threads start, but seriously. I'm attempting to install my first water cooler and the instructions are the definition crap. I don't have any fans on the top of my case. Please point me to or give me instructions on installing the Corsair H100i into the NZXT Phantom 530 case, preferably into the top two brackets, but honestly at this point I'll take anything I can get.
 
The radiator will have to be on the bottom/inside the case while the two fans are up top/outside the main case holding the radiator up with screws.
From top to bottom:
1. Fans
2. Case Shell
3. Radiator
The screws should be long enough to hold up the rad.
Only way I was able to set mine up since I couldnt place the rad on top with fans inside of the case due to lack of space, my mobo has some heatsink up top thats preventing fans in that area. That picture that Barney posted doesnt look like the 530 but does seem like an NZXT case. Gl

If theres any way to place rad up top with fans inside/bottom by drilling in holes, please respond.
 

Sorry, I didn't respond, I didn't think anyone was still on this thread. The 530 only supports dual-200mm or triple-120mm on the top. You can either mount the rad on the bottom, or get a different rad.
