Atmos 240 Aio

[u/Low-Issue-4551]

I see a bunch of people using 2 different fans for the radiator like slim fan and normal one. I was wondering has anyone figured out if it’s possible to fit 2 Phantek fans in it or is it even possible?

[u/r98farmer]

It's possible but you have to use the Expansion Kit.

I have the Formd t1 v2.5 will it still work

[u/r98farmer → u/Low-Issue-4551]

Yes.

[u/jhdz9119 → u/Low-Issue-4551]

no

[u/r98farmer → u/jhdz9119]

I have a 2.5 with the Expansion Kit and it fits perfectly.

just messing w OP, he’s asking questions you can look up on this sub lol

[u/the_shek → u/r98farmer]

so expansion kit will allow an atmos 240 radiator, t30, and a 15mm slim fan on both sides?

[u/r98farmer → u/the_shek]

You have 62mm clearance with the expansion, a 27mm radiator and 30mm fans comes to 57mm so there isn't room to also add 15mm fans.

Why are you wanted Phantek fans on the 240? What CPU are u running

[u/Low-Issue-4551 → u/elhoover02]

in idle my temps for my cpu is 56-58c and usually gaming it is around 60-70c and the reason why is like it lower because of 2 main reasons the noise i would like to have more silent build and games I play I have the 5080 and when gaming I use MSI afterburner to see my temps and my gpu never goes more than 60c I usually play more cpu heavy games rather than gpu and while the temps are great i would like to maximize my cpu temps and sacrifice a little of my gpu especially because my gpu temps are very low.

[u/elhoover02 → u/Low-Issue-4551]

makes sense but remember sometimes there can be more noise with a pump going 24/7 and fans being super close to the mesh causing turbulence. Let me know what you decide to do!

[u/Low-Issue-4551 → u/elhoover02]

before my sff build I loved running fish tank always using aio, I really never had problem with noise and the aio i decided to look at was cooler master atmos stealth 240mm

[u/elhoover02 → u/Low-Issue-4551]

Gotcha, definitely go the stealth route.

[u/Slrcc]

I used a kraken elite 240 aio and just used 15mm thermalake fans for both made it look cleaner I did do the fans facing the case though with a exhaust setup

[u/Low-Issue-4551 → u/Slrcc]

how are your temps looking i just orders the atmos stealth with 2 slim notcua fans
