  1. Hey Redux, Sorry for late reply, I don't check this too often. The dive cage only supports 2 drives...I have 4 SSD's in total so I have to mount them somewhere else which wasn't going to work. As for the case fans, I mostly had 4 SP120's at the house already so I thought those would do. Also on the top, only one of the dual 120mm bays is "open" to the chamber with the motherboard. The other one kind of spans the top of the motherboard tray back to the back chamber. This is probably why they have the thin requirements on the rad size. I would actually probably mount your rad on the front of the case in the front chamber (similar to a standard not cube case) then exhaust out the top. Also, with this case my GPU temps skyrocketed without a fan as intake on the bottom (also keep it off carpet). Overall, I thought this case was a total nightmare to build in...but that's just because of what all I had to fit in it. For someone with 1 SSD + 1 HDD or even 2SSD + 1HDD (you can mount one ssd on the outside of the drive cage...it's weird) it would work well. Especially if it's a full water cooled build. It just wasn't for me in the end and I ended up selling it to a buddy of mine and moving back into my 780T. If you have any other questions feel free to get back with me and I'll be happy to answer them!
  2. So many fans because of how restricted the air flow is in that case. It's a shame really...it's beautiful. I'm actually sending the case back though, it's almost impossible to mount ssd's and run cables (the ssd's mount over the grommet holes) so I'm not quite happy with it. I'll be moving back into my 780T. I found fan guards to keep his fingers safe...and I've kicked myself all weekend for moving to the new case
  3. I just bought an anidees AI Crystal Cube. RGB fans look nice behind it in reviews...it will be on my doorstep when I get home from work. It's a nice looking case in the midrange case price.
  4. Yea I noticed how similar they looked. I chose this one over the Air 540 for the tempered glass. Plus I think the other guy that had the flow issues was using a stock CPU cooler...so that doesn't help either.
  5. @TVwazhere you think that is a decent case? I saw a couple reviews that really praised it...but it's fairly new here in the states so I'm a bit worried that I did see the airflow issue (especially coming from a 780T). I could send it back as soon as it gets here if the consensus is that it's not a good case.
  6. Yea they're what I was thinking about using since they're not badly priced and perform closely to the NF-F12. I'm thinking 4 in the front, 1 rear and 2 top (in the back). I've seen some people have issues with putting all 4 on top with the front 2 pulling the cool air out before is starts mixing which I don't want at all...
  7. I'm about to switch over to an anidees AI Crystal Cube from my beloved Corsair 780T due to having a small one that is now walking and can get the front fan filter off. I have an NH-D15 on my CPU and a 980Ti. I've seen one other post about someone having some air restrictions in the front, and I was debating putting Corsair 120mm SP fans up front (not AF...yes I'm taking Linus's advice). Will these be good for this application or are there better? I really don't have the cash to dump on NF-F12 or else I would.
