A 280mm rad will fit in the top of a C70.

he said he didn't like the look of the c70, I think it would look great if it wasn't for the fan mounts on the window

I know he said he didn't like it I don't why I suggested it again actually. It's a nice solid case that's well worth its cost imo. Like I said earlier do you like the Switch/Phantom series?

 

Edit: It's really easy to replace the C70 panel.

yeah I don't like the phantom series either, so what do you look for in a case besides the nice window do you like the fractal design r4

Room for a 280mm rad on the top, biggish CPU cut out and of course a sexy windowed panel :P

I'd say the r4 would be a great case for you, just because you don't have a budget doesn't mean you need to spend money on the biggest case out there :)

Fractal Arc Midi R2 looks better but would it be okay with Asus maximus VI Formula? Just because of it's backplate.

I would have thought so but don't get the formula anyway it's unnecessary just get something like the hero or the gd65 from msi

Don't think so lol

haha didn't think it was after not being able to find anywhere to buy it by the way you should wait for the 9000 series to come out before you get your gpu
