Imo the 700D is better than the 800D but neither are as good as the ATS 840.
Hi,
I see you have the H50 and Obsidian with a Q6600, how do you find the cooler?
How so?
Tempted with this

+ a H50
Find the H50 excellent if I'm honest.
Went from a fairly large air cooler to that, the temps stayed the same and it tided up the inside of my case no end
That's what I'm thinking as I've got a Noctua in an Antec 300 at the mo

Sort of what I'm tempted with. Only prob is that I'm running a B3 Q6600 and would like to find a 9550 etc.
Got one of the original Noctua coolers, it's a squeeze at the mo and temps are going higher than I want.
Got up to 79 ish with intel burn test at 3Ghz.
Got a 5870 in there too, so it just makes it a bit of a sauna
Order the 700D case, but staying with my Noctua cooler.
Which way would people mount the cooler

I will be putting two of my Noctua case fans into the top of the 700D
Currently I have two fans in a push / pull config

I have a 700D
Loved the 800D when it first came out, but the two things I didnt like were the hot swap door on the front (ruined the look IMO) and the fact the side window went past the "shelf" showing the PSU bay.
When the 700D came out it resolved both my dislikes (with the help of a custom side window)
literally just finished the case swap (and a few cheeky additions)

Got the 840 and its got issues.
1) Side pannels rattle
2) Cable management is poor
I would change it for a 700D i had the budget.

Yeah - just need to get a few things sorted and I'll get a build log up
Awesome.
Mine arrives next week and selling my antecedent 300. Good case, just I have too much gear.
TB your system looks ridiculously like mine (although I don't have Watercooling).
Love my 800D, with some better fans and a controller the air flow is pretty good. The only problem then is dust build up with all the negative pressure - wish there was an extra intake fan underneath.
