360mm radiator Case finding help!

[SkylakeAlex6700k]

I need help finding a case and need suggestions! I am looking for a case that can fit a 360mm radiator and has a place to mount a pump.

thanks,

Many mid towers and full towers can

Can you give any more requirements?

fractal design define s is a good place to start with multiple radiator options. along with a dedicated reservoir mount w/HDD-SSD support.

phanteks has some good cases set up well for this kind of stuff

no size rewuirements, not even noise, just below $150

Any  features? Anything you want to avoid?

I would like to avoid 5.25 bays if possible, and I t has to have a huge window.

Fractal design define S with window.

Just the one I have.

Plenty of space for 2x 360mm rad + pump + long GPU if that's what you have.

You can put everything inside this case

 

And also not that expencive (in my country only 110€). But then again, define cheap  

If you are going for water cooling from EKWB, you will be spending much more on water cooling, so another 100€ for case might not be problem for you.

see, my friend's dad just gave me an xspc 360mm radiator, I was planning on just a kraken x61 and h440, but now I feel obligated to do a custom loop. I really like the look of the h440, but it really doesn't have anywhere to put a pump/res. Is there any way i could mount a pump/res in the h440? Like a really big res. Since he also gave me a res that is almost as long as the radiator itself. Also is there any way i would be able to replace the windowed side panel in the define s with a piece of tempered glass?

The 360 fits in the front

yea, but how would i mount the pump/res so it's visible through the window?

Ermm short GPUs? Like the 480 or fury's?

I guess.

[vladonizer]

Maybe the NZXT H440?

I wouldn't recommend H440 case for custom water cooling.

If nothing else, for future upgrade. You might once realise that you wanna put GPU in water loop also, and single 360mm rad might not be enough.

And as you said, this case is kinda small. I had S340 case from NZXT, and bought from fractal just because I couldn't fit anything in that small case.

 

There is always a way to get everything inside your case, but it might require changing your case. Like cuting it or something.

 

Just get bigger case that is meant for water cooling, and save yourself tons of trubles
