Getting ready to Order an M8, but got a couple of questions.

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
I'm going to be ordering the M8 very soon, and have a couple of questions.

-Is it possible to mount 2 360 rads on the PSU side? One using the side mount, and one on the top with the PSU on the bottom?

and

-Is there enough room for a 400mm FrozenQ res and a DVD drive using the highest possible bay? Decided to go with a 250mm. I read that 400mm is overkill and not that neccesary.

Thanks! Can't wait till I get on of these awesome cases!

Yes, it is. If you want to do push-pull with a thick radiator, one of the extended tops will give you a little more room to work with.

Thanks! smile.gif

Got one last question. Case is getting here tomorrow, can't wait!

Can you mount a cylindrical res in this area without getting the vertical mount accessory or is it necessary for mounting it?

You could probably fit it, depending on how you want to mount it, but you could always move it slightly to the right as well. From what I gather, the accessory mounts just make it easier to utilize dead space in a case and offer more flexibility.
