i have an alienware X51
the specs-
Intel Core i5-2320 3.0GHz(6MB Cache) with Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 • 8GB DDR3 SDRAM 1333MHz Memory • 1GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 555 • 1TB SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive with Native Command Queuing
my system is getting hot when i play game , so i want to add liquid cooling. then it will not fit because the X51 casing is very small,
i dont know anything about liquid cooling so thts why i choose the corsair H60, looks simple.
how can i do this? can i just put the radiator out of the case? or i need to cut a blowhole on the side panel an mount the radiator and fan?
