I have an idea for a readily available window that will install in our side panel.
I am having a hard time finding one that will look OK.

What I am thinking is a window used in an rv or motorhome or a caravan as some may call them.
Usually aluminum frames, painted black and available in a fixed window style.

Anyone have a buddy in the rv business that could help us out?

I have been doing lots of reading on cooler master's Cosmos II and i have been really impresseed with the features, looks and asthetics. The only thing that is holding me back on purchasing this case is the top of the case which cannot accomodate my quad rad which is the Aqua computing AirPlex modularity 480, after some research i found out that although this case does take a quad rad it only takes a slim quad rad and not the thick rad from Feser, XSPC etc...

My airplex 480 fits into my TJ07 perfectly but the features on the TJ07 is becoming dated and my hardware needs a new home.

Do you think I can safely mount the thick quad rad with sufficient Clearance so that the rad isn't obstructing the motherboard? (fans outside the case)

Thanks in advance for your advice

it all depend of the thickness of your rad. And the motherboard you're using.
My RX240 radiator is 5.85cm thick and I had to struggle to put y 8pin and 4 pin in my rampage IV Extreme to the point I bought a EX240. With some cable extension Im pretty sure you will be able to fit your quad radiator.

But be aware that you will only be able to fit 3 fan on top to cool your quad radiator (which is usually enough tough) There is no space for a 4th fan unless you remove the controller and start to play around with the slide panel.

watch OCED TV on youtube of the case its a long video but he'll tell you the exact size you can fit in there.

@ evolution: Hey so I want a 360 on the top with a push pull with the mobo you have (smexy btw) what rad should I get?? and then should I use a thicker one on the bottom for my 240mm rad?? or just use a regular one?

Valgaur: I'd still say you'd be better off with BitFenix cable extensions than the Corsair cables. navynuke's picture is of the BitFenix cables. Here's two pics of my setup with them, too, front and back. I'd probably be using them with my GPU as well, but Tagan seems to have put a lot of effort into the GPU cables to just tuck them into a corner.

IMG_2500.jpg

As you can see... there's significantly more cable that's not even seen than there is actually visible. Another thing i like about the BitFenix extensions is that for just about every cable (except for ones like for the frontside USB connections), the sleeving goes all the way up to the inside of the molex connection basically. No visible heatshrink on the last bit of sleeve.

It all depend of what you wanna accomplish. If you wanna do a push pull config, you will absolutely need a thin <=35mm radiator with thin fan for the inside and then normal fan for the outside top of the case. Or you wont be able to connect your 8 & 4 pins connectors to the RampageIV Extreme

As I said, it depend what you wanna accomplish. My CPU (3930k) is now overclocked to 4.7 and I have 31-32C idle and 65-68Cwhen compressing video. Which are normal temp for a overclock of this size (1.40v for the CPU) and I only use a XSPC EX240 on top with a pull config.

If you go for a 360 + push/pull config, you might get better temps but not so much. One thing you might also take in consideration, since the gain won't be so much, having a push/pull configuration is a bit noisier than normal config.

I currently received all my stuff for my new watercooling loop. I will take a lot of pics with different configuration to give you an idea of what would fit or not. I have a huge work to do this week end thumb.gif
I will also post all the temp Im getting. (my bad now that im thinking about all those pics... rolleyes.gif)

@ElementalDragon: I just receive my cable and I cant wait to use them. This will be such an improvement compare to my Revo ugly cable!!

The thing with the push pull that im wondering is the 360 rad for space with that heat sink on the top of the ASUS rampage IV Extreme (darn long name man) I want as push pull no matter what I'm looking at some corsair fans that JUST came out that are 25mm....just wondering what thickness to use for rad.

Wouldn't exactly say that's a long name. Yea... character wise it is... but easy to remember. Unlike damn near every other motherboard from every other manufacturer.... and even Asus's other boards. For example, my Asus P8P67 Deluxe. It's pretty bad when you actually have to think about whether or not you actually have the right numbers. Or if you want to talk about long names for just about anything.... how about the Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket HD. what the frack (weird that the typical abbreviation of the normal version of that statement is censored...) was sammy thinking?
