yes, probably; 900rpm for SP120 is just my personal acoustic comfort zone - I'm totally happy with the level of sound at this speed

I wouldn't doubt you could run everything without fans with what your cooling. Saw this in another thread and temps were high but still lower than what an air rig would have been.
Hey Pepe, thanks for sparking the idea of doing this in me: I'll build my PC like this then, also, but with black/white not black/blue 
I was wondering something: If I use a normal full sized ATX Motherboard, will this case take a 360mm rad (@45mm thickness) in the top and the front with SP120's in Push/Pull? It would be really great if you had an answer to that

Do you mean triple 120 rad? Those rads are around 40cm long - no way to fit it on top (well, unless you cut a hole in the back).
Hehe, nah, that wasn't my plan
but does a triple 120 rad fit in the front with 45mm thickness? and pushpull? when the top rad is a dual 120 also pushpull?

Mine as well keep the extra set of fans if he doesn't swap out for a thicker rad.
Some measurements for those asking questions ('will it fit?'), with 2 240 rads installed as in the pictures on the first page (using default holes).
Note: it's only accurate +/- 2mm and for initial planning only. Before buying or deciding on anything, please measure yourself
In the front this is 240 rad, there is place for 360, but watch the spacing in the top.
Hint - you CAN have a layer of fans in the front, outside, but this requires removing the filter. Both fans and original filter will not fit under the front panel.
Standard fans (e.g. SP120) are fine without original filter - double checked myself.

Are you using a power drill as a cutter? Awesome! :rock:
EDIT: Maybe a mod could move this into the build logs section? Seems to be
more appropriate IMHO.

yeah - my dremel overheated (hot summer here
) - it needs to go to warranty serviceit is a standard drill, but it is all right - I thought it would be worse :lol:

Wow those are some really well done cuts in that panel. Proper TLC with this build, there is!
