I've been looking at the pictures of the TJ07 and trying to figure a few things out:

In order to mount a 120x3 radiator in there, it looks like you have to remove both the hard drive cages. Do they have mounting brackets so that you can mount the entire cage up above in the 5.25 bays? Or does the case ship with brackets to mount individual drives? What do you who own the case do?

Also, are there screw holes or some such to mount the radiator, or do you have to drill them? How much space is left up for the power supply, too (using a thermochill)?

Nope you have to be creative or buy your own 5.25 to 3.5 bays, here is a nice thread for a mod: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=150299&highlight=tj07.

Since I suck at all things creative :rofl:, I just bought this: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&manufacturers_id=53&products_id=21082.

As for holes to mount the radiator, I am not totally sure but I think you have to drill them yourself. And there is plenty of room for a power supply with the Thermochill radiator. I even have one of those long 1kw ones and it fits with a 120.3 rad.

Edit: Here's another mod to mount the hard drives and it also shows space available in the bottom: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=149265&highlight=tj07
