there are youtube tutorials on how to do so and its not actually all that complex tbh i really hope they come out with a windowed side panel though it would be much easier then having to mod one and prob look that little nicer overall

Just put together my 400r. It is an amazing looking case. Only two things I found to be an issue:

1. Rivet in the bottom had to be filed down before my power supply could fit (its a normal sized power supply)
2. My CPU pin cable was almost too short, I had to route the cable under my GPU to fit

does anyone have an experience in mounting 280 rads on to the 500R's top radiator compartment?? specifically the BlackIce GT Stealth 280 rads? Thanks a ton!

oh, and by the way, if you have, is it also possicble to mount dual 140mm fans underneath the compartment with the rads in it, blowing air out? thanks!

1. The rivet didn't bother me while installing my PSU, but for some it has been a problem.
2. Which side are the PSU cables coming from? On the left side, or the right side (facing the front of the case) Because my brother had to flip his PSU in order for the cable to reach. If it still doesn't reach, try getting an 8-pin extension, it will look a lot cleaner.
