My nearly finished build:

Has anyone managed to get 1 triple and 2 double rads inside a HAF? I'd love to fix mine so it did, but it's hard to picture if it's even possible without removing everything :P

[MiKA7]

with imagination everything is possible freonor

[defect9]

looks like you could cut a big hole in the side panel and mount them there over the motherboard

[Freonor]

having rads in the sidepanel sucks though :S Difficult to handle when I have to open my computer. Which I need to quite often :S

[cadupradoo]

Does anybody know if the Zalman ZM1000-HP Psu covers the hole to pass the cables behind the motherboard?

I'm almost buying this case.. but it's gonna the same mess it is on my CM690 if the psu covers the hole... I can see in some posts above that Corsair HX1000 doesn't, but I dont know if it is as big as zalman's..

Thanks!

Does anyone know if its possible to change the colour of the front 230mm fan to blue ??

I saw a comment in someone's worklog on how the red LED is just glue in, so it was an easy change. Performance PC also sells blue LED fans that fit.

Nice one, thats exactly what I was looking for

[surfhick]

I saw, in a thread somewhere, some triple radiaters that fit in the top without drilling holes. I think Swiftech's was one. Can anybody confirm this and maybe know of others? Also, I can't seem to find a res that will let me make use of the fill port. Looks like most, if not all, bay resevoirs will block the port. I'm not sure what to do here. I could do as myowngod did. Or mount the pump/res in front of the PSU. I would really like for the res to be the highest unit in my loop. The best looking solution I have seen is the Typhoon res/D5 combo but that would eliminate the use of the fill port. Oh. and this is definately the most expensive set up I've come across. Maybe I should just forget the fillport. I just seem a waste to not be able to use such a cool feature. I have no idea how to tap holes in plastic (don't remember what resevoirs are made of at this moment) as that would solve my problem. Any ideas.
I just got the idea to wc when putting this case together. It will be my first loop.

I've come up with the idea of getting a bay resevoir and making a new hole in it. I can get some scrap pieces of plexiglass at the hardware store. New project - learn how to drill and tap plexiglass. Or, drill a hole and find a suitable plug.

Magicool Xtreme III for sure.

feser, swiftech, xspc, hwlabs and the rest of the rads that feature 15mm spacing will fit the top of the haf932 without drilling anything.

[ReVolut1on]

Just a quick question. Should I replace both sidepanel/CPU HSF fans to Red LED fans or sidepanel fans to red and NH-U12P fans to blue? What's your opinion?

[surfhick]

Thanks knet. I had seen these listed before but forget where. I'm leaning toward the swiftec because of bang/buck and their ability to work well with slower speed fans.

[Freonor]

Swiftech is a winner

[surfhick]

This is what I was doing. I got this far and decided that its time to try w/c.



I have Ultimate radiator combo from Petra's and D5/655 vario pump on the way. Trying to get a Typhoon III reservoir. I wish it had a fill port under the case's. I'm practicing drilling and tapping plexiglass to see if I can do a clean enough job of it.

Looking at myowngod's I kind of wish I just got a 355 with xspc top and mounted it in front of the PSU. I think, that way, I would have been able to pull it out and raise it above the rad for easier bleeding. Nice buil bye the way.

These case mods are looking so awesome!
Getting this case soon, going to do my own little paint job to it with a little graphic design.

[cadupradoo]

I'll get my case in the next few days.. Since nobody answered about the zalman 1000w, i'll find out and post here...

Not going to any mods, but will post the pictures anyway...

Soon it will be watercooled, i hope..

Was it about the hole in the back being covered? I don't know how long your Zalman PSU is but the hole starts at about 6 1/4" and goes to about 11 1/2" from the rear.

Thanks a lot, I noticed that today, when I got the case... I'm installing everything right now... the zalman is only 20cm (7.87") long, but it was enough to cover the hole on the CM 690...

Will post pictures soon!

[tbone8ty]
