I've got a pre-order for the titled case but have now found out that air cooling isn't ideal for the case design..

It 'IS' still possible to use liquid/AIO coolers but no the best air flow setup...

The question is, do I cancel the order before it is due/shipped.. Or do I keep the case and make a cooling system work with the case?

I'm looking to use a liquid cooler for the CPU if possible.. And have seen many video builds on youtube with people using liquid coolers..

Please could somebody with the same case or a bit of knowledge give me some options of what liquid coolers would work (top mounted or side mounted)..

And lastly.. If definitely not water cooling the whole system, would you just change cases entirely?

Any help and advice appreciated.

I found it totally fine with AIO in cpu, gpu on air. I put the AIO in the side behind the dividing panel so the fans were flush with the backplate (intake) then had fans on the bottom for 2nd intake and fans up top for exhaust.

This is what I've seen done on this case.. What CPU cooler option fits/did you go for?
 
So I guess the question is.. Do I cancel with OC whilst the order is still a 'pre order' and hasn't been shipped?

I love the look of the case but if I can't fit a Liquid cooler properly like a Kraken X53/63 then it's pointless for me.

If you have the space for it, go with the XL version. Would allow taller CPU tower coolers and wider GPUs. The regular O11 would allow 360mm rad/AIO, but at the side position, would be a bit of work or even mod required to fit. The XL is taller and wider.

This is the problem. Not got the space for the XL version..

A 360mm rad/AIO should be fine if side mounted. don't mind having to adjust something if it works.
 
Still trying to decide what AIO liquid cooler to get.. I think I'll go for a 2 or 3 fan 360mm cooler and probably top mount..

I'm quite tempted to put case fans in as RGB.. Which makes buying a none RGB liquid cooler not fit right with me.. I was quite tempted by one of the razer kraken coolers but would need to spend a lot to then have to replace the fans it comes with for RGB spec ones.
