Anyone water cooled a PS07??

I haven't seen many tbh, though if radiator space is of concern it looks like it should take a pretty thick 240 + 120.

Looking for SLI options I take it?

Exactly!

It should take a 240 and a 120. Could possible also get another 120 mounted horizontally at the top where the drive bays are. Obv a hole of sorts would need to be made for that!
 
It would indeed, a standard ATX size case too large I'm guessing? As something like the CM690 would be near ideal for a 3 component loop with 480mm or radiator space.

I actually used to have a switch 810, but I thought it was too large.

I was looking at the fractal midi - but tbh if I can keep it small (matx sized case) then I will.
 
On the surface the Fractal R4 appears that it would take 2 x 240 rads without any mods, not a bad looking case either, quite a small case as far as ATX cases go too.
 
Don't think you can fit a thick rad in the roof of the R4 unless they've changed things from the R3. I used to have a R3 and things were tight up there.
 
Its looking like if you want ~480mm of rad space in a smallish case you're going to have to sacrifice radiator thickness on one of the radiators unfortunately, either that or get a small mATX case and run the radiator externally...
 
So far from what I can see...

A TJ08 can have a front 180/200 rad with a 120 at the rear. I could possibly fit another 120 in the floor or in the drive bays. Bonus if the foor is dooable is I can use drive bays for res/pump.

PS07 can fit 240 rad in the front, 120 at the rear, possibly a 120 in the floor. Due to the 240rad going into the optical drive bay area it only leads one bay useable so no dual pump/res bay.

Still thinking hard and researching!
 
Tj08 is better.

Get a Dual bay res in there a D5 a 200 mm in the front a 120 in the rear and a small 3.5 Inch fan controler in the expansion slot in the front of the case behind the radiator = perfection.

No way. . . . there is no space what so ever in the R3 or R4 to fit 2x 240 rad's

The space between the top of the Mobo and the top two 120mm fan grills is really small.


you could get a low profile rad in there with some low profile fans but its not worth it because you'd be very tight for plumbing options.

Rip the HDD caddies out the front and mount a 240mm in the front and a 120mm in the back.

Yeah - from experience in the past, that's what I thought about the case.

Very limited.
