Best case for WC to replace my 902

Storrm · 22 Apr 2012 at 19:54

Hi,

Total WC newbie here. Really want to have a go as my 580 whines like a jet plane on take off! I was considering starting with my Antec 902 but from what I read, this case may not be the best to water cool, especially as I intend to cool my CPU and GPU. Can anyone recommend a decent case up to £150 that will take a 120.3 rad (ideally up-top so I can keep my hard disks up front)? I'm ok with having the water reservoir outside the case (at the back) as I dont want to fill the insides with too much clutter.

Cheers

That's second hand 800d money, do you have MM access? There are usually a few on there.

You can have 2 x 240mm RADs inside with a single HDD cage(but you might have to forget about a DVD drive), do search in other forums about 902 mods.
When I was doing my Antec1200 mod I did find lot of 902's with dual RADs

Or if you must change the case then might I show you this?

Thanks guys. Very much appreciate the advise and guidance. I'll report back when I'm ready to make the wc hardware choice :-)
