How is the case for watercooling, what Rads can you fit?

Im eyeing 360 & 240 Hardware Labs Black ICE Radiator GT Xtreme, 1 in the top and one in the front.

Any good?

Cheers

That case should fit a triple radiator in the top and a double in the front without any problems I think. I'm pretty sure it also has room for a double on the bottom.

Should have no problem fitting a 360+240 into an elysium, until the switch 810 came out the Elysium was the budget big WC tower of choice, just a shame the Elysium looks a bit like a crushed car

I love the look of it, it looks raw like it was styled by a blacksmith with a hammer.

I don't mind the looks too much, when I buy a case I'm more interested on what it offers internally, the Elysium certainly offers lots internally.

Do u think the Hardware Labs Black ICE Radiator GT Xtreme 240 & 360 with Push/Pull with Typhoons at 5400 RPM

will hold a I5 3570K OC to 4.8ghz and 2 GTX 670 OC to probaly oblivion.

360+240 will be ideal for a 3 component loop, though two pointers for you:

1. You don't need push/pull with that much radiator space, you won't see much if any temp improvements.

2. 5400RPM GT's will not only deafen you, they won't offer a great deal more than the 1450/1850 versions, make sure to invest in a fan controller too.

Case will also fit a 420 in the top
