Case Labs TX10-V & Water Cooling

Hey Guys,
I'm new here on the forums. Never really been on any forum so thought I would give it a shot. I have been wanting to build an extreme water cooling build in a huge case lately. I have been looking around and found the Case Labs TX10-V. I wanted to find out if it was a good case to use. My build wont be the biggest and baddest as some you may see on here by others, but I wanted to have a HUGE case anyway. Also I would like to be able to expand my system later on (when i'm out if college) and i think the TX10-V will do the trick. I have done builds before but i'm new at water cooling. Is there any thing important that I need to know? Best Fluid, Radiator, Water blocks, etc...? Thanks thumb.gif

The TX10-V is a pretty specialized case (the TX10-D is much more common) and the people who buy it usually have a specific need for all that space behind the MB although some simply need to have the PSU(s) there so they can keep the upper and lower chambers clear for other things. Not to talk you out of it wink.gif but you might look at the STH10 if you plan on having a single MB system. It's design is based on the TX10.

Best regards

I just took a look at the STH10. It seems to be what I need. I terms of water cooling, does anybody have any suggestions on some of the best components? I've been watching videos and reading reviews and there are so many of them that seem like good products. I'm leaning to a Swiftech Water Blocks, Swiftech Pump, and a Black Ice Radiator. Does anyone know how these hold up in the long run? Thanks!

That's really all you can do man. You will get 100 different answers from 100 people so the only you can do is look around. But a few good sites for watercooling is, performance-pc's, frozencpu, and aquatuning. I really love Case Labs, any of their cases will suit you, I personally like the TH10, don't own it, but I would like to. It's an amazing case, very expandable, and you can fit 4 480mm radiators in it from the start. Radiators that I would get are Alphacool's because they are all copper and have 3 ins and outs instead of one so you can configure your loop(s) to be super easy to maintain. So that's about it, if you have any more questions let me know and I'll give you my opinion. FYI I'm only 18 but I have spent 3 years researching computers and all things that go along with them, I don't have much hands on, but I do have a lot of opinions. So if you trust me I can try and help as best as possible.
