Hi everyone, can you guys please recommend me the best case to use for liquid cooling? I want a full 2 loops, no price problems, it just needs to fit 2 x 480 radiators with a few more radiators... I also dont want to mod the case, so no drilling holes :) thanks in advance

Everything needs to be visible! :P

Will all the components be visible in the loop?

 

mostly, 

it can fit a 480mm monsta rad in the roof push/pull fans and the same for the bottom

yeah, but dude, if you want to fit 2 480 rads in one case you gotta pay to play, why do you need something that insane anyway?

 

As for a case, the 1 Jayz2cents uses for Skunkworks.

To be completely honest, my whole life I have been told that I have had a shitty computer, and so when I got money to buy a new PC, I did, my new PC parts are on my profile... but the thing is that I want to go all out and Liquid cool the shit out of it... also I want to overclock

Dual 480 rads is an INSANE WASTE of MONEY for a 7700k and a 1060, a 1060 isn't even worth buying a Waterblock for (as a watercooled 1060 will be lower performance then a 1070 on air and cost you more overall), don't listen to the haters, a delid and replacement of the TIM on the 7700k while using the AIO you have will give you all the head room you need to max the OC on that chip.Buying a HUGE case and dual 480 rads is a pointless waste of money.

True and I appreciate it, but I want to have an OP computer that has a great performance... but I will be getting 2 1080 Ti cards and watercooling that

Caselabs makes the best but they will break the bank. I have a 900d and that is similar and works well

dual 1080ti's and the 7700k could still EASILY be cooled by a single 480 rad, you don't need to separate the CPU and GPU, if you REALLY wanted to separate them then do like a 240 or 280 for the CPU and a 360 for the dual 1080ti's, it will be a LOT LOT easier to find a case that will fit a 360 and a 240 at the same time.

I would look at getting smaller rads as well. Dual 480's is just a waste unless you're going for dead silence. 

 

If yoou were to look for a dual 240 or a 360/240 that would do just as good in all honesty.

First you say that price is not an issue, then you complain about price?

What about the Corsair Obsidian 900D?

The Corsair 900D can fit three 60mm thick radiators with a set of fans mounted, one 480mm radiator in the top and one on the left side, and a 240mm radiator on the right in the lower compartment. 80mm thick radiators and push/pull 60mm thick radiators would be pushing the limitations that I cannot verify for you, so I would go with the above recommendation.

 

You can easily do a dual watercooling loop in the 900D, thanks to Singularity Computers selling a dual reservoir mount and a 900D dual reservoir mounting panel specifically for the case.

 

I personally own the 900D, but the build quality could damn well use an improvement, but not a terrible case for its price point and what it can fit.
