Hey i was wondering if i can use a ThermalTake Xaser3 Case for
water cooling , i would like to use the Black ice 2 with 2x 120 MM fans. I read about the case and it says that the bottom 3 1/2" bays slide out, is all the space clear from that or are there still trays there to hold those bays?? Please give mean answer asap :)

You'll have to cut out the trays. I would recommend using a Chevy Caprice heatercore instead of the BIX, it's cheaper ($30) and performs slightly better.

My setup in a similar case with the caprice core:

I just finished a WC setup using a Super LanBoy and it was the easiest set up I have done thus far
