Thanks.

I have the o11 dynamic at the moment but im flogging the full pc, so thinking of getting this case. But the issue i had with the o11 was that with a v-mounted gpu, i could fit fans but no rad at the bottom.

Im wanting 3 x 360 rads. Not that i need 3, I just want 3

Regretably you cannot install a Vertical mount with a rad/fan config in the base.

The reply I received from our PM stated:

Code: 
Hi Lee,
If you are using vertical GPU, no room for radiator. C8 has 8pcie slot, if you are taking 7pcie slot, only 33-30mm room in between.
You need to have at least 53mm with radiator and fan.

What about some vertical mount that allows to install the bracket quite high?
Coolermaster V3 would allow 2 slots higher, removing the corner of the bracket. Also some Lian Li, like the one for the Evo or the old XL ones.
Only issue would be that the GPU is oils overlap the CPU block, allowing very little room for connectors.

The advantage of the cooler master is that you can adjust how close, of far, from the motherboard you want. Also move a bit to the right if the GPU interferes with the exhaust fan at the back.
Not 100%, but that’s an idea.
