Lian Li V600B with Tuniq Tower

I was considering getting the Lian Li V600B and putting in the Tuniq Tower. I was wondering if it would fit properly and also how loud is the tuniq. If it is too big would there be another one you would recommend? Im looking for something quiet and to fit an LGA 775 Core 2 Quad.
 
I don't think the Tuniq Tower would fit in that case, given the way the PSU is oriented. If you want to use the Tuniq, you'd have to get a case that mounts the PSU above the board, not parallel to it.
 
V600 case is really restrictive on HSF...Tuniq won't fit. Most non-stock HSF won't fit according to what I've read. I actually ordered the A05B case from NewEgg earlier yesterday afternoon after a good month's worth of case choosing, comparing, and debating. 😉

My new build will have a Q6600 and a Tuniq and they both work in the A05 because there's nothing blocking the Tuniq. That's the one thing I didn't like about the V600...the PSU mount is in a really odd place, right in front of the mobo. If only they'd move the mount to the front with an extender cord like on the A05, I think the V600 would be a perfect case.

As for noise on the Tuniq, it's one of the quieter HSF out there from what I've seen; there's plenty of Tuniq reviews, links, and info here on AT. 🙂 Originally I was going to get the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro for the Q6600 because I don't plan on much overclocking (just the free 25% increase by bumping the FSB up to 1333 on the Gigabyte P35-DS3R mobo I plan on buying)...but the thing that irritates me about the Freezer 7 Pro is it uses those stupid plastic clips that the stock LGA775 HSF use and I don't trust it; I'd rather have a screw down design like on the Tuniq.
 
Man that is a well designed little case. If you were to remove the harddrive bay . You could mount a PA 160 rad on the front 120mm fan and mount the pump were the hardrive bay was that you removed. It would be pretty good rig cooling cpu and gpu.

with four optic bays you could mount 2 HD in raid 0 and have a decent small gaming rig .
