Longest tubes on a closed loop liquid cooler

[sitho8800]

Recently I have been looking to purchase a closed loop liquid cooler like the corsair H110 or h100i, so a dual radiator either 120mm or 140mm. However, I am looking to mount the radiator in the bottom of a NZXT phantom 630 and the tubes would need to be quite long in order to reach that far. Im not sure about the exact length, so which cooler has the longest tubes? I am not looking to make my own water cooling loop, just something simple and easy to install like the corsair rads. So far I have found the NZXT Kraken x60 which has 16" (406mm) tubes. Im not sure if this will be long enough though so what are some alternatives?


Thanks

Any reason why you can mount it in the top?

I dont think there are any with tubes that long, even in the perfect world scenario where you dont have a GPU in the way (I assume if your getting this expensive a cooler you would have one).
Most I can think of doing is getting a Swiftech H220 (which is unavailable pretty much everywhere due to manufacturing issues) and replace the tubing with your own.

Though IMO, if your willing to go to that extent your one step away from just making your own custom loop. A low end kit like an XSPC Raystorm 750 RS240 is around the same price as the Swiftech.

the swiftech h220 is unavailable because they are in the process of moving to a new factory

they have a shipment on the way to usa suppliers which should be there next week

they have had some issues with some units and debris in the pump

but think the ones they have sent out now have been flushed out before sending them

and their customer support is fantastic

Thats good to hear .. I missed getting an order in durring the initial release and have been waiting anxiously with all the talk of debris / motor issues . Hope they have worked that out . Where its prefilled it dosn't seem right that you'd have to drain , flush and fill to have a properly running unit

What did you end up with and doing? I am placing an order for a NZXT Phantom 630 with a NZXT Kraken X60 and hope to be able to mount it as intake pull from the bottom.

I think that I am just going to get a x40 and mount it at the top-back because I really wont be overclocking my cpu enough to need the x60. The case is quite large so if you still want to get the x60 and mount it in the bottom, i would suggest measuring it up in the case first before getting the x60.

I checked with NZXT Customer Service and they confirmed it should work on the bottom. Worst case, I'll mount it to the top!

Did you finally try it? I want to do the exact same setup at the bottom.

It fits perfectly, the graphic card is somewhat in the way but you can pass it next to it. I have an Asus GTX 660 and it fits fine.
