hi

i have a CM690III at the moment and its housing my WC loop but the rad doesn't fit right in the case and looks crap, also vibrates as i cannot fasten it in the bay properly. the rad is the XSPC one in the ocuk value 240 mm kit.

i will also be selling my rig and building a i7 system - X99 or skylake, not sure what one yet. so it will need to house a ATX or micro ATX mobo. i don't want a full tower, midi is fine but it must be easy to work in and take the WC kit which may also be changed in the next few months.

budget up to £100.
 
i may stretch to more as selling my cm690III. i fancy a corsair cube case as well.

are the phanteks good to work in?
 
I've recently brought the Phantek Pro M case and I found it very fun to build inside. The case looks stunning as well. The reason I went for Phantek Pro M and not the Phantek Enthoo Pro, is because the Pro M had enough room for me and full tower cases are just too big for my liking.

Here is a video.

i have decided that i want a case to house all my hdd's that are in my server case. i don;t really need a server anymore and am selling my hp microserver because of this. i stream stuff from amazon and my m8 box now. i may invest in the corsair air square case. looks good. i may also upgrade my watercooling radiators to some nice looking ones. is this case good enough to house a lot of stuff?

I have wanted a Corsair Air 540 for so long and was all set to buy it but just couldn't bring myself too because of the large footprint it has. I opted for this instead
 
that looks nice. had fractal cases in the past.

i thought about the air as hopefully i'd hide the rad behind the mobo tray to creat a lovely loop. i'll check both out.
