Better case for X99 watercooling?

[asim1999]

WHich of thw two is better and why?

Corsair 900D or HAF Stacker 935 with an extra HAF 915 (915+935+915) in that order

So which is better

[Hans Christian | Teri]

With a bit of modding the 900D can fit 2 480 rads in the bottom, which is more than you will ever need, and it's sure as hell a lot prettier than the Stacker

How?

How?

 

Move the PSU up front to the 5 1/4" bays you're not going to use anyways.

Hell no, I'd go for the Fractal Design D5 if single loop.

D5? R5? Am I missing something? It really depends on what components you want to run, if we're talking quad SLI the 900D is the easy option.

Yeah I meant R5. I would go for something like the 900D if 4-way SLI, because radiator space. But with just two cards, something smaller would suit me better. I don't like emtpy space.

Hell yeah, if you get a 900D it would be to fill it. The R5 is amazing for smaller systems and properly beautiful as well.

Consider the Thermaltake Core x9. Holds way more than the stack or the 900D

WIll i be able to keep my 2 hard drive cages if i only use 1 rad in the botton and is there enough space to mount an XSPC Photon 170 or 270?

Not sure, and not sure. The case looks massive, but I'm not experienced enough to properly answer that. But considering that it dwarfs what looks to be a 980, I would think you can fit just about anything.

I know that it's advertised as "fully modular", so there should be plenty of room for stuff. Also it has spaces on the back of the motherboard for holding SSD's, Found another pic of it "naked"

 

And the ltt forums won't let me post it, too large.

yes the hard drive cages swap to either side,  you can also mount hard drives underneath the motherboard as well,  its very simple to do just a few thumbscrews to move.   fitting both cages would be alittle bit of a chore but feasible.   I only used one  I could fit the other one in but i left it open to stash all the spare wires from the psu.  If I cleaned that area up a bit  I could fit the other hard drive cage in
