im thinking of a Lian-Li case....but not totally sure. i know for sure that it wont be going anywhere anytime soon. so weight isnt an issue. more or less its making room for everything....

my only thing about the new case is that i plenty of working room in it and a motherboard tray for when i want to work on the mobo i can just pull out the tray.

This then is my recommendation: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119039

Plenty of space, removable motherboard tray, built-in mesh on the bottom to put your rad over, great general case airflow but a bit heavy. But, since weight isn't an issue, that isn't a problem. Perfect case for your needs, IMO.

im ordering my rad from DangerDen

[daboogas94e]

the way im going......i will never buy another case or cooling system for YEARS

[Torin]

That's the idea.

since you own the case......tell me what you think......pro's and con's

[daboogas94e]

what kind of case do you own Torin?

[daboogas94e]

btw....i should be recieving the rad in a few days!!!

[Torin]

Good, now get to work on the other components.

That mountainmods case is a monster, you'd definitely be able to fit anything and everything in there. I prefer the stacker, but that's me.

Laing DDC+ 12V Ultra (18W) with Alphacool/Radiical top

now where in God's name is this?????? i cant find at Petra, jab-tech, DangerDen, FrozenCPU........any ideas where it might be hiding at?

i think i like this case

[ghent915]

Daboogas:
You can find the DDC Ultra (18w) pump at DangerDen. Also, the radiical top you have to order straight from them. If you go the Alphacool route, perf-pc's and frozencpu both have them.

whats the difference between the 2?

I really like the case, it has lots of room and holds the PA120.3 in a convienient posistion. But because it is so open it is also kinda tough to hide all the wires.

The quality of the construction and the powder coating is very impressive. Even though I have so many fans in the case (I would recommend Yate Loons) and because I undervolt them my temps have been very good and the noise level is less than my last case. The "1203" model of the U2-UFO will give you more drive bays and still be able to mount the PA120.3 horizontally where as mine is vertical.

I really like the Lian-Li but unless you mount the rad on top of the case I would worry about the amount of dust and dirt that the rad would be pulling. JMO

Here is the Alphacool model and it seems to be a popular choice using the top hole for the "inlet" and cap the side inlet.

so the rad would mount inside the case on the top part?

First, don't get the brushed aluminum case, it is a nightmare to keep clean, it will stain etc, etc, trust me it was my first UFO. If you mean the UFO the rad mounts in the front...

[daboogas94e]

well im not letting anything near my computer anyways.....but i think i see that you have the rad mounted to the front of the case? where the 3 fans are on the case.....am i correct?

right now.....i havent ordered the case yet

just ordered DD DD5 from DangerDen

Yes the rad mounts on the left front facing the case and it is a perfect fit.

nikhsub1 has a shroad on each side of the rad with fans mounted in a push/pull configuration.

Damn I wish that my U2-UFO looked as clean as his! But that gives me something to work towards.

[daboogas94e]

ME LIKEY that get up that he has.....its so clean and organized. hmmmmmm wire management is your friend i suppose!!!! im heading to voyuermods to check their cases out!

[AMDfreak]

I'm not going to claim that this is hands down the best, but I'd like to think it will be xtreme.

The setup I'm in the process of building right now consists of:

Mountain Mods U2-UFO case.
MP-05 SP CPU block.
x1900 full cover GPU block courtesy of Eddy EK.
PA 120.3 Radiator with Yate Loon fans and shroud.
Tygon 7/16" tubing.
Iwaki MD-20 RLZ pump and Criticool relay switch.
Pentosin blue antifreeze to mix with the water.
Swiftech Micro resevior.

[daboogas94e]

now all i need is the coolant.......damn, i cant believe i havent ordered any yet
