Im very tempted to get a atec 1200 case as ive seen some of the window mods and it knocks the socks off my present case lol! Just a couple of quick questions

(bare in mind i wont have a side fan with the window mod)

1: I have a h50 CPU cooler (its a all in one water cooler that you attach to the back of the case with the air pumping from the outside to inside the case) if i turned the back two exhaust around and had them pumping air in would i have to turn the front ones around aswell or would the 20cm fan ontop take care of the exhaust for me?

2: will there be enough room for a 5870 GPU??

3: IF i decided to (in the future) upgrade to a full watercooling system is there enough room inside the hold a decent size RAD??
Hope you dont mind me asking! Im finding a lot of conflicting opions on these questions over the forum :(

1: You can do this if you wish, you will not need to turn the front ones around, just the back ones. It will also create a positive pressure in your case which is good against dust.

2: Yes, plenty

3: Yes, I know for a fact what you can fit in it as I have done it myself. You can fit a triple (360) rad in the front if you remove the drive bays (but keep the fans+grills in the PC) and you can also fit a double rad on the back (either inside or outside the case, you decide). The pump can be mounted on the bottom of the case.
