Case for XSPC EX240

JJimmyJ · 20 Jan 2014 at 12:45

Hello

I'm struggling to find a good case at a reasonable cost that would house an EX240 rad.
It has to be ATX. What is the smallest case that could house this?
I really like the Fractal Design ARC Midi 2, but it weighs almost double my current case!
The Corsair Carbide 200r looks good, but with fans on my rad it would take the width to over 60mm which would impact the vrms and ram.

Any suggestions folks?

Oh, a window would be nice and room for some bling (asking a lot I know)

Thanks Doomed. I have looked at that one, but it just seems too bulky for me. It's like 2 cases stuck together (and the price!!!!)
I don't really want to spend more than £100 for a case.

Get the Arc Midi, my Define R4 weighs a silly amount but it's made of steel so is incredibly sturdy.

Not sure why weight is an issue unless you intend to carry it around everywhere.

Well I opted for the Arc Midi 2 in the end. Just unfortunate that OCUK don't stock them.
What a monster of a case!!! Had to redo my loop due to the tubes not being fractionally short, so I was in the bad books after my bold 'it'll only take me an hour' statement. Needless to say as with most things PC related it took longer.
