[Denis_Twin]

Hi, I was wonderinf if Will I be able to install Cooler Master CPU Cooler MasterLiquid Lite 240 into either of these, will it properly fit?:

Cooler Master Masterbox MB600L Windrowed Mid-Tower 

or/and Corsair Carbide 400C

or/and Corsair Carbide SPEC-5

 

Thanks

They all do (in the front), I wouldn't recommend that watercooler though. Either spend some good money on a watercooler from NZXT or Corsair, or just go for a great air cooler like those form Be Quiet or Noctua.

 

This Coolermaster cooler is not really that good. A colleague of mine has one and 1 of his fans got warped so it was hitting his front panel.

in that sense there are many fails with many companies, the point is if its actually bad or if they got into that situation by chance.

The store tried to sell me a corsair instead but I have limited budget and dont want to invest on all the parts for premium.

Not sure what you mean by that first sentence.. Of course I don't know of everyone's experience with that cooler, I can only name the experience I have had or heard from and with that exact cooler and a Coolermaster case, that happened.

 

And I know it's not wise to spend a lot of money on a premium thing, which is why I am rather suggesting going for an air cooler or if you really want watercooling; you have to spend a bit more to really get a difference in terms of.. Everything in terms of performance, reliability and noise.

 

Plus, the cases you listed only have front mounting options for 240mm radiators, which would not be great for the airflow for all the other components in a system.

Very true,

which cases would you suggest then on the budget under 80 euro (check italian/german market)

The Meshify C is a good option, as well as the H500 from NZXT.

It kinda depends on what you are looking for, in terms of motherboard size and general expandibility such as hard drive space and obviously cooler compatibility.

 

I am not hugely into PC cases anymore though, so those two mentioned are kinda basic recommendations.

hmm, actually corsair carbide 400C seems to be having a decent airflow and can potentially mount from the top isnt that right?

Both of those questions are correct.

thought so, Im pretty positive that the store tries to sell me corsair-only products or anything expensive as a solution for my "compatibility issues" with other parts.

 

Anyhow,

the parts I am trying to assemble are the following (Most have Personal Preference where it is due):

CASΕ: 

Corsair Carbide Clear 400C. 
CPU: 

AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Box 
PSU: 

Corsair 750w Gold

MOTHERBOARD: 

Asus Rog Strix B450-F Gaming

COOLING: 

CoolerMaster MasterLiquid 240, 
RAM: 

G.Skill RipjawsV 16GB DDR4-3200MHz (F4-3200C16D-16GVKB), 

STORAGE: 

Seagate Barracuda 2TB + SSD 500GB Samsung

GPU:

GTX 1080

I see no compatibility issues anywhere within that spec list. The only thing I might look into is to make sure your motherboard supports that particular RAM kit (link). Ryzen when first launched was VERY picky about RAM and getting to it's rated speeds (3000) which matters for OC'ing the CPU unlike Intel chips. With the 2nd gen they've improved it significantly, but you might only get 3000mhz out of the kit, which when you consider how much more expensive 3200 ram is over 3000, might be worth looking into. 200mhz wont impact your OC headroom significantly. 

 

Looking at the chart, there are very few kits that are supporting 3200mhz speeds (at least that Asus has tested) so your mileage will vary if you decide to go with a kit not on the list.

I am not too familiar with those so I really couldnt tell and of course the store would sell me whatever they wanted (thats why I turn to linustechtips for advanced user and tech specialist feedback).

Furthermore I have no idea of the specifics for OCing, I will try to OC after my warrant has ended.

Do you think the pumps on the side will interfere with the ram cards by the way?

(I am just getting back from a wedding over the weekend, I apologize in delay for the response)

 

The pump fittings coming out of the side should not interfere with any RAM modules at all.

You can at least set the RAM to run at a faster speed than the board "supports" (official specs are either 2400 or 2666 mhz) but if you enable XMP Profile 1 it should bump the speeds to 2997ish (possibly 3000) which wont void any warranty, and will get you a bump in even stock performance (due to how the CPU relies on good RAM)
