Me neither really...
I think I will invite RJKONEILL to answer this as he owns one himself

Do you do the rad stands for the TJ11 (I've been reading reviews)
Would be interested to hear rjkoneill's opinions. How come he's not around at 23:48?
Did he go home early?

He is busy licking his wounds as he is not getting a Galaxy S3 phone delivered tomorrow, but I am. So he is all moody.
Although he made a great build with it, I recall that he wanted to go for a smaller case but stuck with the TJ11. He still has the case and has got a nice project log with the TJ11 going.
Thread here.

Looks great.
Soooooo... have you ordered it yet or what? (You know.. before they remove the price reduction...). If not.. I've got this awesome Gigabyte case...... (IGMC).

Was really hoping we'd get to hear/read rjkoneill's honest opinions on the case.
The reviews I've read say it's a great case (the TJ11), but they don't have to live with it or set up their own rig in it. Any other TJ11 owners have any opinions on it? How does it compare to the much cheaper TJ07 or the FT02 (depending on if you air or water cooling)?
What sort of rad space are you able to fit in it comfortably? How does that compare to the amount of rads you can get in the TJ07 (with the top grill mod)? How have people mounted the rads?

I asked RJK to post today, but he was busy in meetings... Later or tomorrow he shall reply
Hi Guys
TJ11 is awesome. best case on the market. bar none. the only case better is the Lian Li 343b but that is no longer manufactured.
there is a load of other cases i have seen that come close but the build quality of the 11 is even better than the 07
sure it is expensive and it requires modding to get it how you want it. but in honesty, if you are looking at dropping £400 on a graphics card then dropping 400 quid on a case isnt really a big deal.
your case IS your computer. it is what you look at when you see your pc. so buying the best case you can is never a bad thing. a high quality well built chassis is a joy to build in and every time I look at my system, I think about mods that are possible for it.
there has not been a single time I have regretted buying my TJ11, and it is a treat to watercool a PC inside. I plan on finishing my project when funds allow but as it is, the cooling performance and layout is unparalleled.

Seems like rjkoneill is a bit on the fence about it then
I am very very tempted by this case.
The only cases that I'm considering as an alternative are the 2 XSPC cases.
Well and the Mountain Mods Ascension, but by the time that's imported from the states it'll be pricey (probably even more than the TJ11).
They do seem like they may have the edge over the TJ11 when watercooling though, due to the amount of radiators.
How many and what size radiators can you fit in the TJ11?
Also, where would you position the pump and reservoir?
Sorry for all the (repeated) questions, but it's an expensive case and I want to be as sure as I can be if I buy it.
