Lian Li V1000B w/ Swiftech 8600 series

[TooRude]

I figure most cases are going to need some type of modding in order to fit 2 radiators in which is what im looking at doing. the radiators are 2-pass 80mm. was wondering if anyone else had water cooled in this new lian li case, and how much trouble they had finding places to either set up radiators parallel or across.Thanks

seems the v1100b is slightly bigger so now I might go with that one

bump..... I think it might be possible to put 2 80mm on the bottom below the harddrive bays... any ideas?

I was looking at the 8600 kit as well w/ dual rads. have you looked at the CM Stacker by Cooler Master? I'm thinking about getting that case. I originally wanted something that my friends would oooh and ahhh over (Lian Li v1000) but the CM Stacker is so f'en versatile! You could prob fit both rads in the extra PSU slot at the bottom of the CM. That's my plan.

You might be able to fit your large radiator in the V2000 version. there is a dual 80mm fan socket above the psu .

My V2000 has plenty of space above the PSU for dual 80s, but I would recommend going with something like a Black Ice Extreme and putting it in the rear 120. I'll bet that you'll get much better temps that way.

Try the V1200 series. It's wider.

i ordered a v1200 and am planning on using sparkys advice with getting a 120 for the back but im also going to try and mod an 80mm into the bottom below the harddrive bays. not sure how its gonna work but my friends uncle can laser cut it for me... if that doesnt work out right does anyone know if the dual 120 radiators from swiftech would fit well into possibly the door (I havnt ever seen this done). i could try and get that laser cut flush with the heatsink and then get 2 holes drilled for the tubes to go in and out.... thanks for your time youve all been a great help
