What No 1000d Thread? :)

I’m tempted by this monster, anyone else? Currently rocking a giant rig in the 8Pack Lian-Li so would be a reasonable update and I think every so slightly smaller whilst still being incredibly MASSIVE.

Any big rigs thinking of changing over?

I don’t think the price is THAT bad for what it gives you, I mean personally I have no HDDs it’s old tech really... lots of SSDs and M.2s inside.

I quite like the cooling potential with a pair of 480s, currently have a LOT of radiators anyway. Wondering how you can push it with a single board build, nice amount of space for custom kit.

Just think of the weight potential with a pair of 480s, case of steel

My current case, 360,480,240,240 all 60mm, all 16mm copper pipe in a metal case... it’s heavy yeah

I'm temped to upgrade from my Caselabs but I am seeing if they produce a 750D in the same design at the moment.

Wouldn’t be nearly as big would it? A 900d maybe, that would be nice in the same design though!

I almost pulled the trigger on one. The problem I have is would need another 6 corsair rgb fans which would be an extra £150. I don't want to use none rgb fans...

I feel your pain I have 17 HD120s xD

In one system?!?

Yes... lots of radiators, huge case. Push pull on two. I’m aware it’s stupid

All wired to 3 splitty 9s then to an aquaero.

I might have to pick one up unless something more tempting comes out...

First world problems....

I ordered the case on Wednesday with an expected delivery date of today. DPD have just messaged me saying it's delayed till Tuesday 29th. Gutted.

I've emailed OC to see if I can upgrade to a Saturday delivery but unlikely as DPD upgrade service didn't allow me to do that.

Nice! Post back some pics and info when you can - wondering how much room there is between the two front 480s as I’ve cutrently got all HWLabs SR2s which are pretty chunky and anything but square edged!

I posted some pics in the show me your desk thread at the top. I have another 140mm arriving today for the rear but I need another 4 fans for the front. The case is a beast with so much room.

Let me know if you want some more photos

Nice mate - how much clearance is there between the front two 480s? Looks like you need a pretty square rad to fit two unlike my current HWLabs SR2s.

Thinking I’ll plan a new build out to dump my current giant... More pictures of the internals would be nice, is it a single pc build or two in there?

I think you would be ok with most 480s. Although I'm sure square rad's like the xspc would be a guaranteed fit. Fittings at the top is best also as the HD cage at the bottom makes it in possible to have the fittings at the bottom.

Only a single build and only on a cpu look....I know it's overkill for the rad and case but just look at it. Gives me more room to expand and try things out. New gpu on water is next...

Cool, if you get chance snap me some more pics around the front rad - i know 'most will fit' but if you saw the chunky odd shape that is the SR2 MP radiator you would know why im asking

. Great cooling though!

You defo need the GPU on water, and get two of them
