Casing for 3 x 120mm radiator

[Toyk115]

Hello Forum,

I am looking for a new casing that would be able to accommodate a 3 x 120mm radiator that I'm using in my current set-up.

Size is not a factor. I understand that the Corsair 800D is probably highly recommended. However, are there other alternatives that can fit such a radiator without having to do much modification?

How would the Thermaltake Level 10 GT deal with a 3 x 120mm radiator?

Thanks!

I don't think by default it would work as it looks like a 2 x 120mm is largest.

The HAF X will take a 3 x 120mm up top without modification if you haven't looked at it yet.

I'm sure others will chime in with more options if you give it some time.

Throw in a vote for a Corsair 800D.

I have owned the HAF 932, and the 800D. If your budget allows it, I'd vote for the 800D. If not the HAF 932 or X are great choices.

Thanks mates.

Overlord, whats your reason behind having the 800D over the HAF 932?

How is it sufficiently better to justify the (massive) price difference?

800D. it's built for a 360 rad up top. with minor modding u can easily put a 480 rad up top and a 240 rad on bottom

800D and NZXT Switch 810.

The 810 can fit a 360/420 rad up top with no modification and a 240mm Rad on the bottom/front.

This case

With this rad . 2 small revit to remove, room for a 797O The rad is duel loop or single if thats what ya want Rad performance is unmatched. Both the case and rad are expensive by some standards, I am building one like this . I have built 1 other but 2 rads , Wife built hers first also 2 rads . Both wish they would have used my setup . If IVY was out I would give ya pic

Lian LI has several that will fit both a 3x120 and 4x120 if you dont mind doing a little cutting yourself.

here's one ready for a 3x120.

Thank you for all your input, much appreciated. The NZXT is too flashy for my taste, unfortunately.

The Lian Li's are too expensive for me-- I would draw the line at a 800D.

Nemesis, that is insane I haven't nearly got enough budget for that.

 

[dawp]

what is your budget?

here's another Lian Li for $220 but you would have to do a little cutting.

I have a similar one (rocketfish) that I modded to mount a 120x4 rad on top.

Well ya I know that . I seen your post skipped it . Seen it later I just ans your question. Ya its more expensive than you can imagine to do one like these . The first one was crazy expensive had to pay for
proto typing of case mods wifes custom painting. Next 2 unpainted black Got it down to ware I can actually compete with big boys in everyway Style and better performance. The inside when its done is +AAA If there online pricies are correct . When ya see mine it will be the cheapest Nemesis branded Gamer/Workstation I have built If I did 100 piecies each part from the machine shop those Case parts are still crazy high . The only way I can Cute deeper is overseas and the Parts we make will be made in America period. Bob thinks I have a big winner . will see. If those class machines will sell 20 units a year Bob says priced side by side next to a Falcon he would jump all over these just because of the quality

Well I dropped my haf 932 and it bent badly so I needed a new case. The 800D has vastly superior cable management options, hotswap bays, dust filters, and in my opinion it looks better. The 800D is actually not that great of a case for air cooling, but is fantastic for water. If looks and cable management isn't that important to you, the haf 932/X will fit everything and save you some money.

800D is a sweet case to watercool.

however its kinda small for me..
But that would only apply to me.

If you're willing to get into the $400 territory with a high end Lian Li, a Case Labs Magnum M8 is probably a better buy for water cooling.
