Of these 2 cases, which would be best for an H2O setup?

[Tullphan]

Stacker 832 (no link needed, I assume)
Chenbro SR105 w/this faceplate. Here's a pic w/the door open.
I'd like this to go as easy as possible as i'm somewhat of a clutz when it comes to tools.
Thanks in advance!

Stacker 832.

I've seen 2 different sites where the CM 832's were watercooled...both cases were set up as BTX style.
Any particular reason why?

 

[Ragamuffin45]

BTX has more clearance between the floor of the case and the bottom of the motherboard so you can fit a radiator on the bottom. That was the reason i did it and Aigo suggested it 🙂

 

[Tullphan]

I guess when I think BTX, I think of the V1000B I had & how the temps rose on my video card.
Seeing's how I won't be cooling my video w/H2O at this time, that concerns me.

go larger!

fit internally on the next build.

Why would you want to get another case where your limited to a 120x2 internally?

😛

Please tell me you're not going to suggest a *gulp* Mountain Mod? :disgust:

Got a particular model in mind?
Here's a case like mine w/a 120x3 mounted on the bottom. It's one of the ones I was talking about that had the mb mounted BTX style.

*Edit*
OK...i've seen the TJ07 & it appears they're mounting the 3x120 radiator in the lower chamber on its' side. Am I seeing right?

yup your seeing it very right, and you can put another 120x2 radiator next to it on the other side for dual loop sexyness. 😀

cheaper solution.

The original Stacker T01. Not the 832.
