Is this Build passible ?!?

Go to solution Solved by TheMagDude,

Agreed it needs some modding. I will have to remove or move the HDD cages but still. Could I ? If you are certain that it will not fit, could you recommend a case ?

The Fractal design core 3500 would fit it, and it is similar looking to the Midi R2. And modding is never safe if you are not familiar with the tools, and what if it doesn't even fit in it then!

I am here in this forum to ask the simple question. Is this build possible ?

 

I have a goal to find a good case with a good AIO water cooler to go with it. I have picked the case (Fractal Design Arc Midi R2) and a water cooler (Cooler Master Nepton 280L).

Case: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/fractal-design-case-fdcaarcr2bl

 

If you have any suggestions, feel free to give them to me. Any info on cases and water cooling will come in handy. Thanks

I don't think the Neptune will fit, try making a build with compatibility mode on!

EDIT: Nope the cooler wont fit, with out mods on the case.
