Day 7 - KamaBay Mod day

Today, so I am planning on how to mount the XSPC RX120 into the case.

I want to mount it into the 3 bottom 5 1/4in bays. I will be using a KamaBay to do so. The KamaBay will need some modification to do so. I am not sure if I showed off the XSPC RX120 and the KamaBay, so here it goes and then we get to the modifications.

I already started the modding when I took the pictures but I think most have seen the KamaBay already.

I will add some pictures with the original condition of the KamaBay, as I still have one fully intact here.

So, modding the bay. First I had to figure out how to screw the RX120 on to the KamaBay. The screws on the KamaBay come from the opponent side of the fan usually, so throw the fan and then into the bay.

For my purposes I had to drill wholes into the front of the bay because I would not be able to get the screws through the rad without bending internals of the rad.

Here we go

Drilling 4 holes through the front to fit the mounting screws.

Not easy to drill through mesh and have it look good.

Codisha
Drilling through the screw mount will take out the thread and allow the screw to go through smoothly and still hold the screw in place.

The lip on the top of the bay had to be shortened as well to mount the rad properly.

Codisha
Trimming the top lip of the KamaBay, the RX120 will actually extend about 0.5 in over the bay.

And here we go with the KamaBay Mod.

One more for kicks.

It's a good look but a pain to clean. The Dust filter is nearly unreachable.
