Obsidian 1000d changing case need advise

Hey Guys,

I am planning to move from BeQuiet Dark Base pro 900 rev into the Obsidian 1000d. 
I found some opinions that the 1000d quality is poor . Do you have experience in that matter ? What about dust ? I found one guy claiming that the case is not sealed and the dust goes in like crazy. 
Also what do i need to consider before moving into this mo********r ? Do i Need more cables or something, due to the larger space between components ? 

One of the most important matters is that i plan to put a 2080ti aorus waterforce with the aio block. 
Will the radiator and fans fit in the back of the case ?

The 240mm radiator will fit in the rear.

There are dust filters but indeed it's not sealed.

No because there is an opening just above the moterboard.

Thank you for all that. Overall you think it;s worth it? 
Also is there possibility to mount a DVD drive in that case?

Well it's way too big imo (I posted some advise on your other post I think for other cass :P), and no DVD drive as in ODD, but I'm sure you could place it in the inside though it would be weird.

IF you're not watercooling your CPU and GPU in a custom loop, then it's not worth it. Even if you're using an AIO for the CPU and a Hybrid for the GPU, there are better cases on the market that IMO look better and dont take up so much unneeded space.

I guess I just like the look of a big case and the space inside.  Eventually I could go for something bigger that the BeQuiet but bit smaller than 1000d ? Suggestions?
