I am looking to purchase a watercooling system and wanted to know if i had enough room in my case for it, so if you could give me any suggestions they would be much appreicated. keep in mind that i do not have a dremenl or anything like that and cannot do any mods to my case so i do not have much to work with hear, below is a link to the site which has a pictue of my case, except i do not have the lights or side window:mad:

i think koolance has a radiator that mounts to the back of the computer..
i built mine out of a 68 chevelle heater core and it fits right up front under my drives. but i have 10" of clearance there.. and it uses every inch..

if you have the money to spend, you can get a Swiftec 8500 kit which uses all things to mount interiorally to your case...

I have that case myself. My whole set up is inside it right now. Admitedly I bought everything seperate and had to wiggle things around some to get it inside, but it fits. Wish I had a camera so i could post pictures, but sadly I do not. But it is possible to get an internal setup in one of those cases.

check out dangerden.com and swiftnets.com . there's plenty of rad's and pumps you'd have no problem getting into your case. would be nice if you could make a hole in the lower front for a 120mm fan, you'd have to take out the lower hdd cage and you could put two 120's and a small rad there in a push/pull... exhaust out the back with the two stock 80mm fans. nice!

cutting out a whole in the front of the case is definantly out, so would there be enough air flow with the slits in the front of the case? and i do have 2 80mm fans in the rear of the case so...that part would work out just fine
