Radiator fit inside Antec Twelve Hundred.

[Jayzilla]

Hi all , any of you know where i can get a radiator that fit under the top 200mm Bigboy fan nicely ?the one look like the picture ,Here thanks

The Twelve Hundred will soon be available with a 200mm radiator under the Big Boy fan. I don't think Antec has plans to sell the radiator alone.
Your best bet would be to try to call them and get a "replacement" radiator whenever the watercooled 1200 hits the market. If you tell them you would like a spare part in case a problem arises they should be able to sell you one a way or another.

I plan on mounting one tonight as a matter of fact.... I gonna be kinda upset if they spit out a Watercooled version of this case.... I already removed the top part of the case and I need to do is add a few screw holes and it should be okay. the only problem I see is the outlets are pretty close to the end of the drivebay cages..... if I get it done I can post some photos....

How hard to get this done like your ? do you have to drill lot of holes ?the 200mm still in your case ?fits well ? seriously , it's looks really nice to me !! good job man ,if not that hard to do , i will go for Aquagate Max from coolermaster , or should i wait for the Rad from Antec ? what do you think frostybrad ?

Honestly I'd wait for Antecs rad for it will be the proper fit. Im kinda concerned about the length of the rad being pretty close to the drive cages. But to be honest the job wasnt hard at all...

I removed the top part of the case and disconnected the fan (200mm). I placed the rad inside the case and tried my best to line it up straight. Once I found the location I marked it and drill one hole. Mounted the rad and measured the rest of the holes.... all but 1 lined up, and 3 seamed pretty secure!!! Bout an hour if that.....

I should note that I was unable to reinstall the top 200 fan control into its spot in teh back of the case. It didnt matter to me either way for I always leave it on high. I have it resting on the backside of the motherboard tray.
