I was looking at the inwin too, should have looked harder I guess, just kind of put me off having the psu up there where you would mount the rad

Ive just moved to it, if you position the rad all the way to the right the PSU will still get some cold air you can see on my picture below:

Today I got a kraken x61 to cool my nice new 6700k, only problem I can't mount it in my spec 02 case. Ok sure good excuse for a new case, but wait they don't have the s340 in Stock, guess I'll grab the mastercase pro 3. Alright finally toted this awkward behemoth box home.... Oh wait fuck is this matx?! 

 

  I need a atx case to fit the x61 comfortably and preferable under or  around  100$ please bombard me with suggestions!

Cool cool, guess I'm about to go pick one up. Nice build! So a little hesitant to go custom loop.

Thanks it's still in progress. Custom loop is well worth it, it's a little pricey for initial outlay for fittings, blocks, rad, res and pump but well worth it in the long run, just don't forget to fit a drain point, many people forget on their first loop

Yea I watch a lot of videos on it, I'd really like to. Just got to get the initial funds and courage lol. Trying to upgrade to an x99 platform might think about it around that time.
