I understand the clearance from the CPU bracket to the GPU is pretty tight with most air solution but do you think I will have a problem with a watercooled bracket like the one you have used?

By "bracket" I'm assuming you mean the waterblock itself? If so, no you should not have any clearance issues as the blocks are much smaller than air coolers.

Well first again killer build just like all the others out there.. Making a build log on my phone first till I start getting parts...
But question
The rear 120mm fan set up what is the space between the back wall and the sister board rear ports?
Would you say 80mm or??
Looking at getting a 120 rad slim line and slim fans to put a 120 on the back for an extra cooling between the gpu and CPU,.
Take ever ounce of room on these mini builds I love em
Its a dream but it will happen a project to be made worth of a magazine smile.gif

Not sure what you mean by "sister board rear ports".

Thanks! smile.gif

Mine were from mdpc-x.com but shipping costs a lot to America. I believe performance-pcs.com has them as well as hardware stores (Home Depot?).

I like the case but not a big fan of the fans outside either. I mean, I like fans outside but... not just bolted to the outside with open gaps in the roof and exposed metal. I would have liked to see something like this, which would have involved some cutting but woulda looked better. This is from the singularity build on youtube (just type in "Prodigy Singularity" to see it - great videos)



He used the koolance 280mm fan shroud which fit perfectly. It achieves 3 things...

1) Gives MORE room inside, 2) Allows 280mm rad instead of 240mm, and 3) Looks better IMO.

Cons are like I said have to cut the top, but yeah it sure looks nice.

Was also wondering why you went with the black bitfenix recon display and not the matching white one?

Not liking that look at all but everybody has their own opinions. It doesn't match the overall look of the case and makes it look "top" heavy. There's no reason why I need more room inside anyways and my temps are fine, no need for a bigger rad.

If you'll notice the build date, this was done back in June. The white Recon was not available then and Bitfenix said they didn't have plans to make a white one back then. Also, the black contrast worked quite well.
