Hello,

In the Corsair 4000d case Is it a good idea to put a 360mm radiator watercooling in the front? Since it's not possible on the top.

On top I could put a 240mm.

Is 240mm enough for 14700K or 14600K?

H150i or H100i of Corsair

Kraken 240 or Kraken 360 of NZXT.

Otherwise I could take the ventirad AK620 Zero Dark but it's less aesthetically pleasing.

Thank-you !

According to Corsair's website you can fit up to a 360 on the front and 280 on the top. The 280 and 360 have similar cooling potential so whichever one you prefer should be fine for a 14th gen. The 280 on top will likely limit the height of your RAM modules. You can check out some builds on PCPartpicker for inspiration: https://pcpartpicker.com/builds/by_part/bCYQzy

Keep in mind that the rad/fans on the front of the case reduces the max length of your GPU. Also, there are several AIOs that are less expensive than the Corsair or NZXT models you listed that perform as well or even better.

If you have room I'd size up to the 5000 series case. Much easier to work around in etc.
