Not really, but apparently it affects temperatures a bit. I have mine facing the GPU, so my cabling doesn't criss-cross and the power plug has less slack.

I'll tell you the easy way. Unscrew the top of the frame from the rear of the frame and the front of the frame (note i didn't say front panel) by removing 6 screws (2 front, 2 rear, 1 top left rear, 1 top right rear). To access the top rear screws, take off the side panels. To reach the front...

Ok, looks like the radiator fans will get connected to the NZXT cable then. The pushing of the RAM will be ok, these damn cooling cables are stiff. Still trying to figure out a proper layout as well. The radiator, yes push it back as far as possible, when you do that the ball studs won't hit...

I got fan grills coming in myself, hopefully in the next couple of days from Amazon. I have the corsair platinum PSU as well, so those braided cables are a pain. Will be using zip ties here and trying to bundle everything as tight as possible under the PSU, and between the board and power supply...

I think after owning the SM580 for less than 24 hours, worked on it for 2 hours to get a proof of concept fit that looks terrible right now, it's a great case. Like everyone says, there really isn't any compromise with this case (or any SFF case that pushes the limit). You pretty much have to...

Got the bracket out. Just a bit snug. Custom cables are almost mandatory for this case. I installed everything I needed, and still have issues trying to make the cables neat. Not sure how the rest of you guys are doing it. Fan connectors for bottom fans, fan connector for radiator fans...

How the heck do I mount the radiator? I unscrewed the 4 screws from left and right of the case, the radiator holder won't come off.

So, basically, they won't fit and close properly with the h115i in any orientation. That's good to know. Very unfortunate

I wouldn't have guessed the code... lol. I think I'm content with not saving $15 at this point, just needing a case badly. Good deal for everyone else though!

For a 92mm AIO with a 15mm fan vs a C7G, not much of a difference. What were you expecting? I mean, best you can do is repaste and remount. It's one thing if you were comparing the 92mm AIO to a Noctua L9, but the C7G does well to compete with water.

Well, granted the Cryorig unit you're talking about is the highest end model, but also a unicorn to find... at least I can't find it.

1597293553 I was stalking the site. I manually typed in what the url was for the SM580 and kept refreshing the site every few minutes. When the pages turned from not found to showing there was a live HTML, I was ready. Could've been number 1 order, but sat there wondering what side panels I...

YAY!!!! Got my tracking. Sweet!

Pure jealousy from me. Just twiddling my fingers hoping I get a shipping notification :)

Will fit fine in the SM570/SM580. Apparently it's only the H115i model that has fitment issues.
