file port question

    i've got an akasa mirage and want to cut a fillport at the top. Should i cut a hole using a hole cutter for a drill or should i borrow a dremel and use that. Its just the hole only has to be an inch in diameter and if anyone knows of a good hole cutting drill bit or where i can get one that'd be great.

    Also beyond this i'm having alot of trouble getting certain water cooling parts because the ones i want are either not available or are all in different shops across the net. Does anyone know a good water cooling shop online for danger den stuff, EK water blocks and parts? I was thinking of going to frozencpu.com but i think i'd have to pay import duty?

    Any help would be great as i'm very stressed over this:(

    There are quite a few out there like watercooling.de Or Alphacool.de

    There are other places like overclockers that offer some stuff. But the german sites seem to have the best stuff.

    Ebay is also a option too, many a bargain to be picked up there.

    Prices on Specialtech seem pretty ok. Just ordered a 240mm rad from them.
    Around €10 for shipping in Ireland, unlike the crooks in Overclockers.co.uk :mad:

    Most of the UK shops I shop from, charge 5-8£ for orders (that do not include a computer case); OCUK charge 12-16£.
    And lets not start on their fantastic RMA process... :mad:
