Question Lancool 215 AIO Compatibility?

[Noah104]

Hey guys I just bought a Lian Li Lancool 215 and I was wondering if any of y’all know of if the EK Aio 280 D-RGB fits on top of the case, I was looking at the details of both of them but they are starting to throw me off. The Lian Li website says up to 280 radiator but the EK Aio say it’s 280 but the dimensions are more than that. thanks for yawls help in advance

When you see 120/240/280/360mm AIO, it's referring ONLY to the fan dimensions. There is no standard for the radiator dimensions, so they just use that of the fans.
You could pick out 3 different coolers, with the radiators on each likely having different measurements...

The Lian Li website says up to 280 radiator...

If you skip straight down to the specs, you will miss important little notes regarding clearance further up the product overview - scroll back up to 'multi cooling systems support'.
I don't know why such crucial details weren't included in the bottom of the page, but they're not.
