Looking for a case that can fit push pull fans in the top...

[Monkeyspaz5000]

As per title. Preferably a mid tower if it's possible??

Without having fans on the outside of the case or any modding.

If you check my other thread you'll see what I've done with the R3 - but far from ideal.

Anyone any ideas on a decent case?

Fractal Arc Midi

Switch 810 - depending on the rad and motherboard

Cosmos 2 - depending on the rad

HAF

Those are the only ones I know of.

Midi was the first case that popped into my head both in this thread and your build thread when you showed how you'd fitted the radiators.

The Midi is very similar to the R3 but the roof fans are positioned in a way that gives more clearance for motherboard heatsinks.

Not sure if you'd be able to put the 2 RADs side by side without drilling new holes though, you could always use the rear exhaust for one of them.

Yeah, the midi does look a decent option due to the fact the Hd bays can be removed also. Mmm.

This is a bit random, but is there a case I could mount 3 Antec Kuhlers in as I think I'll be going SLI at some point and may as well do the same with the other card.

If you're going to go that far go for proper water cooling, it may cost more but what you're proposing otherwise is going to be a complete mess!

here is an interesting R3 fan piece to look into..

I think you can get push pull in a phantom no? but that may not be your style seeing as you have an r3

If you're buying a case for watercooling there are better cases than the Phantom.

This is coming from a guy who has a watercooled Phantom.

There isn't enough room for push pull in my situation and I'm using a skinny RAD.

my arc midi can hold a rx240 60mm with push/pull just fine, the motherboard is

covered, but the cpu block is visable for hose routing...

a rx360 can be fitted with roof mods and no opti bays..
