So I wanted to buy a black case with some red accents, i really like the NZXT h440. But I was wandering if I could make a custom watervooling loop in there. And if I can't or you have other case suggestions I will sure check them out! Looking to watercool cpu, gpu and maybe mobo! Thx to all the people who help! :)

In this image, whoever built this system has the outlet port of their CPU block being used as an inlet, haha.

I'm pretty sure the inlet/outlet switch doesn't affect performance in any noticeable way, but maybe I'm wrong

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

any case has watercooling capabilities if you have the right idea and a drill/dremmel

I think it does, but maybe not too drastically. The inside of the CPU block is setup in a way that the inlet port sort of makes the water into a thin jet of coolant that goes over the fins sort of forcing the water through the fins, the outlet port however if used as an inlet would just be dumping coolant onto the fins. Then again, take this with a grain of salt since I have no evidence to back me up besides the little time I spent cleaning and observing my CPU block :P

The waterblock in question is the EK-Supremacy EVO (Original CSQ).

You defently can. you can fit more cooling if you go full tower. As mid tower this is a good case.

Im using Thermaltake core 51 its also a mid tower with good cooling capabilies. 

Im not using all the space because that means removing some useful things but im happy with it.

the quality of this case is super its made of steel and acrylic. I had to drill holes for the pump and one of the bits broke in the process ;)
