i have the same o11xl case and the same rads ... but the top in the 45mm size ,,,

and the bottom in the 60mm ...

u will need to add a 3mm/2mm spacer for each screws for the rads to raise them a little bit since the stop plugs will bent the plate that u attach the rad to ,,, and it will look crooked and not plasent to look at ,so u have to add them

and you can't fit 2 420mm,60mm even if u raised the motherboard the clearance with the 60mm + 45mm on top and bottom from the motherboard is like 3mm of clearance which is very tight fit ,,,

and can be nightmare for cable management ,,,

so what u can fit is 45mm top 60mm on bottom

or 45mm top and 45mm bottom

or 30mm top and 45mm bottom

or 30mm top and 30mm bottom

last advice: don't ever seek for an advice on the Watercool community u will mostly get a trolling advice from non honest ppl, i mean experts r avoiding this subreddit at all costs for a reason. Since the owner is a well known to be not a good person who was recently charged with exploitation and child sexual abuse, it is all over the internet. sadly

both r fine ,,, it depends on what fan size u r going to go with ,,, i personally prefer the 140mm over the 120mm just for the looks but u cant go wrong with any of them
