Hey guys atm I have 480 rad external and it won't fit in my case and weve had a baby

Soon he will be mobile and pulling and biting everything in site so I need a case that will take 480 the cheaper the better what you recommend I have a 650d atm x

Cheers

Wall mounted open chassis, can't 'recommend it' (don't have it) but the thermaltake fits a 480mm I believe. Unless you have spawned spider kid there will be no way it gets bitten...

wall mounted would not get passed the boss

Phantek Primo? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/phanteks-enthoo-primo-full-tower-case-ca-000-pt.html

Surely it easier to buy two smaller rads that fit in your case?

I'm not a fan of mine... Far too big even with my E-ATX board.

Love mine, not sure i would get it for just one rad though. If you like using 3-4 rads then its great but seems a bit of a waste of money spending that much for just one rad.

That's a tricky one... I think the aforementioned Primo is going to be the 'cheapest' option. Problem is a 480 is a big rad, so it needs a big case... and they are never cheap.

Most of the newer Thermaltake cases will take 480mm rads easily and come in cheaper than some of the Phanteks.

Yes, the Core X71 isn't a bad shout and the tempered glass version is still a good £60 cheaper than the Primo which only includes an acrylic side panel.
