 I have just bought a Mastercase 5 pro, an i really love it. I am planning in the future to build a custom watercooling setup in it but i have a few questions for you guys:

 

1. Will the 40 mm thick EKWB coolstream PE360 rad. fit in the front with 3X120 mm fans on it facing OUTWARDS IN A PULL CONFIG.?

 2. Where is the best place to place a pump, are there any holes or places well suited for this?

 3. Has anyone water cooled in the MC 5, and want to share some tips that is useful.

@3570tech, follow your threads.

I would skip the 360 and get a 420 instead. CM do quote that the front should only be able to fit a 240/280, but I've seen radiator placement in all three fan positions, so I definitely think a 420mm rad is a possibility.

A 420mm rad will provide better cooling than a 360, so I'd go with that instead.

None of the mastercase's support 360 rads anywhere.

 

I know that modding can be fun, but it can be a real pain in the ass as well.  If this is your main rig I would just get something that has the rad space for a much better price.

- EK Supremacy EVO CPU Block - EK FC 1080 GPU Blocks - EK XRES 100 DDC - EK Coolstream XE 360 - EK Coolstream XE 240 -
