    Getting ready to upgrade, but wanna be 100% sure about everything before i buy!

    im looking for a case for watercooling, something with two rear 120mm fans, so i can mount the rad on them.

    i really like pog's case, but kinda wanted something to the rear, so i could mount the res to the front if i desired.......

    any ideas....?? a side window would be a plus, but not essential as i can always add one in later...

    the gigabyte aurora, wizzard is even selling one at the moment. I had one for my last system and loved it. Was really easy to work with and quite nice to look at too.

    the akasa eclipse 62 and CM stackers are also great cases

    coolermaster stacker tbh

    Second vote for a Stacker.
    More room than you will ever need. It can fit a triple rad with a little light Dremel work and a dual with no mods at all.

    Some folks say they don't like the looks of a Stacker....but they're just plain mad :D

    I could always part with my huge blue server case...could fit several rads in there...see below ;)

    Thermaltake comes all ready for w/cing. Holes already in case. Only has 1 120mm fan @ back. Lovely case to work in, loads of room. :D

    Built like a peice of crap, sharp edges, loose/badly designed plastic fittings, looks tacky. I hate TT cases.

    I don't mean to highjack this thread, but i'm also looking for a case that takes 2x120mm fans in the back, but I need it built more like these. These guys seem to have gone out of business, do you know of anywhere else I can get a PC case that is cubed like that and split into 2 chambers. I'd need it to just be the height of the mobo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,762 ✭✭✭WizZard


    Try MountainMods - they do cube cases.

    sarahn11: The Aurora that I have can fit a dual rad at the back (outside) and already has dust proof tubing holes cut into the back of the case.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,227 ✭✭✭awhir

    Get the gigabyte aurora, its a top class case with everything you're looking for, two rear 120 mm fans plus all the holes pre cut for water cooling, also has a cool front projector to beam out a message on the floor.:rolleyes:
    Very nice case to work with and the quality is top notch you have to see it to believe it, the aluminium door is about 7 mm thick! :D

    ah your forgeting that there will be 2 cpus. 3 graphics cards. 2 chipsets also. Im only in the planning stage atm, and need more ideas. Was even gonna try pelting the gpus cpu and chipset, but it looks like to much hard work, and way to much wiring. i would love to try phase changing, but knowing me i would probably freeze my fingers together or something equally daft :(
