I have matey, i was contemplating using them cos they use low RPM fans. Still thinking about it unless i can get my hands on another 240 same as the one i already have.

Thats a nice list mate, have you confimed your order yet? The akasa LED strips are really bright. If you dont like the super bright LEDs i would consider the Silverstone ones.

Apem · 19 May 2014 at 17:31

I was thinking about the Silverstone ones before might be better option then if they not so bright. Still waiting to hear back from Tom about window mod need address to send it too him been waiting since last week for responce.

That's the one that I got and it looks gorgeous!

Oh the window mod not done yet? I thought you'd have it back by now! :O.

Got some good news today, Parvum Systems have sent me their updated S2.0 case. I only asked for a new side panel but they gave me a whole brand new case! Absolutely epic customer service, I could not ask for more! So damn happy! Will start upgrading and transferring my current system into the new case very soon.

Apem · 19 May 2014 at 23:55

HEHE lucky

Nope waiting on him sending me address to post side panel too, I shall give him till thursday if ive not heard anything will send it to another place ive found.

Jay85 · 20 May 2014 at 00:20

If you struggle to find anyone to do the mod I could ask the guys I use over here to do it. You'll have to post it to me though unless you live in south Yorkshire lol.

You can do that quite easily, the whole lot would fit in quite snuggly. Just make sure if you do choose to run dual cards, make sure your front fans are intakes and not exhaust as you want to be blowing cool air and over the cards. The case can easily fit 2 x 240 rads, 1 at the front and 1 at the top AND if you take care with measurements you could also fit a thin 120mm rad at the rear.

Yeah fronts are intake and rears are exhaust, alway done stuff like that for the last god knows how long...

Think I might strip my machine down this weekend, take out whatever bits arent needed and then work out costings for the dual GPU water setup..

Trig · 20 May 2014 at 12:43

Oh hang on...

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-068-AR&groupid=701&catid=2330&subcat=787

Wonder if two of them would fit inside the Mini180 with bits removed.

Ideally I'd want to run both the GPU's off of a single loop with a decent enough size rad in the top where the big fan is and leave the rear for the CPU rad/fan as it is currently.
However those closed units as above are cheap as ****, as long as I could mount the rad/fan combo for those into the front of the case that could be a winner, or possibly run them up to the top of the case and use the existing large fan in the top, would mean no fans in the front so less noise as I wouldnt be adding more fans..

2 of those hybrid coolers will easily fit, even if you decide to mount them at the front. You can mount them side ways and both will fit no problem. I use to have a old corsair H70 which fitted in the same way at the front of the case. I have another thread somewhere with the H70 fitted to the front of the case and it's a thicker rad too so your thinner Arctic Accelero Hybrid II will fit no problem.

If I can dig the pictures out to show you what I mean I will.

Here we are buddy:

So looking from that you could fit 1 rad at the top and 1 rad at the bottom at the front of the case for both GPU cooling.
