@Zippy_Parmesian Thanks for the heads up on the videos on Paul's hardware. I just finished the last build video in the blog series on his water cooled build using the Define R5.
I think it came out great and they did a great job. However, this has just made it clear to me, that "for me" to go and do a water cooled build, I'm going to want a full sized tower case. I am glad I have come to this realization now and not later on after having opened it, or modded it, etc.
So now the hunt is on for a nice good quality (Along the lines of the R5) case to house my build. I have been eyeballing the Be Quiet SB 800 today and it is definitely a contender but we shall see. The only thing I could see being an issue is the top panel and the vents (or lack thereof) for mounting fans and a radiator up top.
I'm using an enthoo luxe... the enthoo series is the most simplistic watercooling case around. I did have to mod it a bit but not much
Wow that's a good looking case. Says it comes with rad brackets already too.
This just jumped to the top of my list right now thanks for sharing.
Take a look at the Define S if you like the R5, but want to water cool. The storage space in it is limited though (2 ssd, 3/4 3.5")
Yeah I want a full tower case.
I wish the Define XL had a window side panel, rather just buy a case with one than have to pay someone to mod it.
IIRC it is the same size as the R5
can't be because it's a full tower (hence the XL designation) and the R5 is a mid tower ATX case.
I was referring to the Define S, but you I was unaware that the R5 was a mid tower anyway
My apologies for any misunderstanding.
