Asetek 690LS Cooler / Antec 1200

Hiya folks!

I'm looking to upgrade to a overclocked system with an Asetek 690LS AIO CPU cooler. I've been told the 360mm radiator will go fine in the front of my case, but I'm thinking - is that with the drive cages or not? I've got a couple of drives in their already!

Any thoughts?

Because Simon B from OC recommended it!

I gave a budget of circa 150 quid and a window - any size. Want would you recommend then? I reckon it's something to do with the fact that the Cooler Master Trooper SE case looks not dissimilar to my Antec 1200!

The Bundle I went for uses the Asus ROG Maximus Hero.

Just one with a window, black really. Metalll is good. Plenty of room for a 240mm rad.

it's now a 670LT,, the cooler. A 690LS / i9-9900k was a bit OTT!

All I know is it's a 240mm / 2 fan one, rather than the 360mm / 3 fan 690LS.

At the moment I have a 5.25 slot cover giving me several USB 3/2 ports - a couple of ports isn't enough. There was a time when new cases had loads of slots available at the front, but nowadays it seems that new cases are clean and free of - anything!

I'm loving that Phantek Pro M - going to get one 'o them.

Window it is! Amazon have a blue variant - which I like...(blue lighting)
