Time for a new case...for lots of rads!

That isn't bad at all tbh :)

April release though, I couldn't have waited that long. Phobya case should be here by the end of the week, feel sorry for the delivery driver having to carry a 22kg parcel up a flight of stairs in the snow :o

I was almost reaching to order one until I noticed the release date.
 
Yep its a shame but I suppose they will be in heavy demand so I presume an april release means everyone that wants one gets one.

I only just noticed that it doesn't have a full midplate, bit of a shame, I like midplates, makes life easier for hiding cables, pumps etc...I am looking forward to seeing some 480+480+240 builds however :D

My biggest hope for the 900D is that Corsair give users more than half an inch of room behind the motherboard tray, extremely disappointed with the lack of room on both my 500R and 800D.

Edit: Project log will start as soon as the case arrives, all thats left to buy is 7970 blocks & monsoon fittings oh and a mosfet block for my board :)

When I get one I will probably put a 480 in the top and a 360 in the front.

The bottom is going to be out of bounds after I put 2 x corsair 1200i PSUs in there.

How do you get a second PSU to work as a slave, do you use one of those white 24 pin connectors you get with w/cooling kits to fool it.
 
I'm sure you can get links that trigger the second psu upon power up but assume they do the same job as a jumper for the 24pin just automatic :)

I hope there is that much room it's something overlooked on many cases imo.
 
Do ya reckon i can fit my 240+360 monsta's just in front/bottom?
Was thinking psu on side with 240 next to it(passive), 360 up front with fans, and hopefully fit pump inbetween??

Then i'm thinking a 480 monsta in top, should have enough cooling then ;)

Have you considered this Just fitted 2x 60mm thick 360 rads in mine with no modding at all for the price its pretty good :)

With some modding I think you could fit a 480 in the front and a 420 fits straight in the roof!
 
I did consider the elysium but ultimately decided against it :)

Have 5 and a half months before the nipper arrives, I've budgeted around 4-6 weeks until completion, so by end of Feb hopefully :)
 
Nope stood in the snow waiting for a bus :p

Have to assemble it first anyhow as it's flat packed.

Edit: Or not, Parcelforce are possibly the single worst courier on the face of the earth. My parcel was signed for as delivered at 11.30am, I presumed by a neighbour. Just re-checked the tracking to find that it now says its at the depot. Phoned up and found out the driver decided it wasn't in a safe place so picked it back up and took it back to the depot.

SO off to the depot in the morning to (hopefully) pick it up.
