My Cerberus X is on the way! Thanks to VegetableStu for all the pics and technical diagrams/measurements, and to loader963 for some practical advice on going with the Cerberus X instead of the Cerberus. The only thing I feel is missing that I'd love to have is front or top audio jacks. I'd love...

Cerberus X ordered. :) Thank you to everyone (esp VegetableStu) for your input and assistance. My plan is two 240mm radiators and use the rear-mounted SFX PSU option. I'm debating using XSPC TX240 radiators. From what little I found, they outperform even the XSPC EX and AX radiators at lower...

Amazing! Thank you! I was really hoping to keep the view available for display purposes, but I think convenience and practicality are going to win out. Makes it easier than bending PETG again anyway. I've done that once before and anything that required more than one bend was frustrating to say...

Thanks again! I threw a LOT into that question because I want to order the case today so I can work on it over the weekend. I'm open to radiator opinions. I've pulled most of my radiator data from xtremerigs.net and it seems that Hardware Labs does the best in 30mm radiator thickness with...

Hey VegetableStu, I'm running out of time (new baby + 2 boys) and I could really use some more help, if you can. I'm hoping to squeeze a 240mm or 280mm rad (30 mm thick) with 25mm fans AND at least one other 120mm x 30mm rad with a 25mm fan. OR do a 240mm or 280mm on the bottom with fans on...

How thick/sturdy is that back wall where the motherboard mounts? I'm just wondering if it has flex to it or is sturdy enough to mount a pump/res combo directly to it?

No apologies necessary! I'm grateful for any and all of your help!

I can't tell you how incredibly helpful all of your assistance is! In looking at the pics I can find of the Cerberus, it looks like the motherboard stand-offs are removable? Also, it looks like the friction pins from the outside panel stick inside the case at the bottom? If so, would ANY 280 mm...

Thanks a ton for that! I could always look at the 240mm instead. The EK pump/res combo I WANT to use would scrape by at 78mm wide by 158mm tall. How "flat" of a screw do you think I need? As in how much clearance do you think there is between the back wall (where the motherboard mounts) and...

Thanks for all the input! I was looking at a thicker bottom mounted radiator to increase cooling capacity, but the thickness seems to run about ~54mm. Add 25mm fans and that's just nearly 80mm. I agree, I don't want to be super close to the GPU. I think I might be alright though because the...

I'm a current ncase M1 user. My system (Core i7 6700K and 1080 GTX, ITX motherboard and SFX PSU) is custom water cooled via a 240mm radiator (CPU and GPU). I mildly overclock and am mostly water cool to have a nearly silent system. I'm upgrading my rig to a Core I7 9700K and 2080 Ti RTX and...
