Looks nice but sounds like an oven on air.

I dunno if it has the space for a water loop, though. It has absolutely no air intakes. Unless you reverse the airflow, and even then the GPU blocks it.

Hi,

about the air intakes, there are wholes in the bottom and the two fans are at the top, the airflow is pretty well in it.
At the end of the year we are also going to launch the Hydro version with pump, reservoir and radiator pre-installed. You can see more at http://eu.evga.com/articles/00777/#Hydro

Hi,

Now that you mention it, I guess the top fans will create a nice pressure for the air to go from down to up.

That hydro version sure does sound interesting as well.
 
Hydro looks a interesting bit of kit dom!

Evga going to move into larger form factor cases?

This would be the next step but at the moment I do not have confirmed information about this. First we will have a look how the feedback on the Hadron will be. If the community feedback a lot that they do also want to see bigger cases I can imagine we will take a look into this :)
 
The EVGA Hadron chassis comes in two different versions, with different levels of compatibility when it comes to CPU coolers.

EVGA Hadron Air:

Compatible with many aftermarket CPU air coolers.
NOT compatible with aftermarket all in one water coolers.


EVGA Hadron Hydro:

Compatible with many aftermarket CPU air coolers.
Compatible with all in one water coolers, (single 120mm radiator) Example: Corsair H80/H60
Compatible with many aftermarket DIY water cooling kits. EVGA will sell a certified kit separately.
