I'm configuring a custom loop right now for my planned Coffee Lake/Ryzen Rig, but I just can't seem to find a good case that can fit a 360mm Radiator with good pump mounting. 

 

Any recommendations?

 

(Other than the Enthoo Evolv because that thing has terrible airflow)

The case looks good but I don't have the budget to utilize the full extent of the radiator support. I'll definitely think about it though.

I have a custom look in this case. It's fantastic, however a bit of creativity is required. Using acrylic to make extend the motherboard tray all the way across the case give a great mounting point for a res.

Define S.

The case does look quite nice and has good pump mounting. I'll probably consider picking that up when the time is right.

I was thinking about that for a thermaltake V21 build I was planning

Yea, I came across some of their tempered glass cases and wanted to pick those up, but the price premium drove me away a little bit.

Core P3 or P5 all the way

I loved the concept but I don't actually have the adequate space to put it where I live so I had to pass that. A damn good case though.

I was gonna get that one but bought a corsair 400c instead didnt have time to wait for case to ship from china. I have seen the Fractal design define S and its great. Very sturdy. BTW check out my youtube channel to see my build its GT20Modding just like forum

The P3 is barely larger than any other full atx case on the market and you could wall mount, unless you can't drill into the walls you should be fine

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

Ahh, the non RGB version. That actually looks pretty good. Definitely will think about it.
