Just ordered the black Thermaltake Armor for my watercooling project because it's on sale at Newegg this weekend...I've looked at the Stacker many times, but the Armor has a little more bling for my liking. It already has a window and I really don't like the round dryer 'window' on the side of the stacker.

Does anyone have a reason not to get this case besides "they copied coolermaster's design"? I'm planning on putting a black ice extreme II radiator up front with dual 120mm fans, with Asetek's new pump (http://www.asetek.com/default.asp?showPage=nyhederPro/visnyhed.asp&param=databaseid,nyhedid&myvalue=1,406&contentSection=1&menuID=-1) once it comes out, and the new Storm waterblock (http://www.swiftnets.com/products/Storm.asp) once I can afford it. Anyone have any watercooling pics in this case they'd like to share?

I've had the Silver TT Armor for quite a while now and will be setting up some watercooling within the next couple of weeks. I'll definatly be making a thread when I do.

I use a Thermaltake Armor for my wc setup so look at the pictures for some tips. If you use the dual heatercore bust out your dremel cause its time to take some crap off! (look at my drive bays)

That's sick. I can't wait to break out my dremel and get medieval on that ass...er, armor!

Did you cut out the drive bays because the rad wouldn't fit? Or because it just gave you more room to work with? I might be trying to preserve the frontplate look, did you leave the radiator exposed like in the last pic or did you have further plans for it? I like how u utilized the bays up top for your res, I might copy that once I get a better idea of my layout.
