Can I get some good recommendations for an external watercooling housing? Something that could mount a dual 120mm radiator with fans and maybe have room for pump? Any good sites to look at?

Obviously the side with the radiator attached would need a cut out for the radiator but the fan side would need openings also for fresh air to enter or exit.

Yeah I've seen that. Will those be able to mount dual 120mm radiators?

yeah they will. they dont have it up but they used to sell 1976 Chevy Caprice/Impala heater cores that you'd buy along with the Scoop V2. but i dont know why their new site doesnt sell the radiator anymore but they were kind of expensive since they were painted and had barbs put in. you'll prob have to drop by an auto store to get the radiator now. they've got a gallery if u'd like to look at on the site too. it says it'll fit a pump but i'd guess that depends on the pump size. the only other solution would be the one from overclockershideout.com.

thats a project box for their external cooler. should be able to fit a big radiator in. but you'd have to glue it together yourself which i dont know how hard or easy it would be.

another thing you could do is goto office depot or such and buy one of those file boxes and use them. i've seen a lot of those and they can look pretty nice if u buy one of those new ones and make it look clean.

All I really need is to find a box where I can mount a dual 120mm radiator like the black ice or sysfx radiators and have room for fan and stuff.

JPI tranz box looks very nice but how customizable is it? The radiator space looks like its for a much larger radiator than dual 120mm radiators. Do they do custom stuff?
