The RocketFish tag thing on the front of the case, what is that made out of? Is it a sticker or what?
EDIT - Just noticed that someone a couple posts up asked the same thing. Nonetheless, anyone care to shed more light on the subject? Its apparently not a sticker, but is it made into the case?
its just a sticker. it beveled into the case though. its peels off pretty clean and easy, but there is still a space there for it. its finished though, so it doesn't look that bad without it.

I think I'll probably get one, and if I don't like it as much as I think I will, I could always get a Stacker, Cosmos, or Armor. Lian Li has THE best quality of any manufacturer I know of.Quote:

The window is very reflective, but very clear plastic.....much clearer than on other windows I've had and used. In the right light, meaning no light reflecting off the window, the window seems to completely disappear.

DUH! Yes, it is.....it has the side vent. But be aware, since the panel was designed for a different case, the vent doesn't quite match up with the side/rear mounted exhaust fan.......but doesn't obstruct it much either. The fan's mounting thing has about 1/2" or so between it and the panel's vent.
I just got me one of these cases. Have some parts on order for my w/c setup. Will be alot better thatn what I have now.
Good luck :up: Remember to post pics :p:Quote:

I'm going to take apart my Tsunami that I worked SO hard to get the 3x120mm radiator externally mounted on, and put EVERYTHING inside with plenty of room to spare. I love how the two hard drive cages are (appear?) removable. Since I usually just put hard drives in the floppy bay, this will make for a totally clean bottom area ready to put the pump on.
The door even has little spring-loaded ball bearings to shut it, that won't scratch up the edges!
I was growing a little tired of the poor build quality of my Tsunami, but I never thought I'd be able to afford better quality. Got mine for $48 on clearance at Best Buy. This is far better than my employee price of ~$100, which I was considering purchasing it at anyway (didn't know it was HUGE or a Lian-Li knock off, just thought it looked nice).
Anyone know where I can get another sticky neoprene square for my pump?
I'm scared to cut a large hole in the top for my radiator. That's why I'm not starting yet.
I switched to this case from a Tsunami too. I love it.
Yes, both hard drive cages are removable. The horizontal bracket that connects both cages to the motherboard tray comes off, and then the screws holding the cages in are accessed from the bottom of the case.
Like you, when I go water, I'm cutting a nice 3x120 hole in the top. Might go dual loop just because I can and put a 2x120 in the bottom where the hard drive cages are.
Only complaints are that it rattles sometimes and not too much space between the motherboard tray and the case side to hide wires.
I came out of a Lian Li V1100B. The 1100B was too small for me. I had to mount the radiator externally with a rad box, but I wanted a fully internal setup. With the RF, I cut the 120.2 in the top, and a hole in the bottom for a 120 fan. I removed both of the hard drive racks.. I agree that the W75 window is the clearest window that I have ever seen! This thing is so big I have mine sitting on a milk crate on the floor because it is too pleasingly plump to fit on my desk without looking gaudy... My wife has a 2 yr. old Gateway and she laughed at me when I took this case out of the box :rofl: ...
PS I don't mind the Rocketfish logo....
I took the door off completely. My computer sits on the right side of my desk, which is the opposite way the door opens, so it was a hassle.Quote:

Can you confirm if this case has a removable motherboard tray?Quote:

What do those clippie thingies on the 5.25" cages do?
No removable tray.Quote:

Here is a picture of Goliath. I don't really have enough room to position it properly. I have more wire management to do... The Bulgin switch and Zalman ZM-MFC1 /Lian Li drive bay cover fan controller from my V1100B fit with no modification.. The optical drive covers from my 1100B do not mount correctly on this case though, so I couldn't hide the cd and dvd drives.

I need this room for phase-change modded case (and I think this one is the only big enough), can someone confirm if this is possible without bumping into the mobo or the psu wires?

Already been done. Easily, but not a very powerful phase unit.
