Default eficient case for water cooling

ok im sick of my pain in the ass YY cube. its imposable to fit all of the water coolign stuff on/in it.

i am looking for somethign sleak, mabye kinda lian li ish, but not 200-300$
id like to be able to fit my 2x120 heater core in it, but if it can be mounted outside and still look nice thats cool.

im having trouble finding a nice full tower.

anything by cheiftec or chenming is ABSOLUTLY out of the question. id rather be using my inefficient pos cube than a default case....

preferably black, but i could paint it.

also, if anyone would wanna buy my cube pm me.

If you can't fit water cooling in to such an large accommodating
case, cease water cooling and seek professional help.

well you do have that big hole in the top so i figured that would account for a price cut, as well as the scratches, so i'll have to paint it.

XPS, I think $25 is a good offer for that case. It's very scratched up, and I assume he's talking about whatever vent is present on the top to get air to the inside of the computer through that huge-ass silver tubing.


I think it's kind of funny how you complain about people hijacking/going-off-topic in your thread. Think about it.

Good God man, that case is as big as a filing cabinet. You could fit an air conditioner in there and wouldn't have to water cool it. Hell they make a ton of watercooling kits that would fit in there.

I, just did a vRED02 Antec lanboy, the original one, with a BIX ll on the top, a custom reservoir, 2 x120mm in and 2x120mm out with a dd D4 12vt pump. Now if my 3x hands can fit that in, you can work wonders in smaller cases. It's tight but there is still room to maintain adequate airflow for cooling the dimms and mosfet/PLL's.
If you want another case, that's cool, but planning and careful execution you can fit all kinds of stuff in there...
