Chimera Industries Cerberus: The 18L, mATX, USA-made enclosure

The ram is not behind the radiator, But behind the pump/reservoir. I can say, 12mm using the LPX from Corsair?
Well, that rules out the G.Skill memory I was looking at.
It might depend. @fabio is using an E-ATX motherboard IIRC. And in my loop I'm not planning for a tube to go between RAM and res. I'm currently using G.Skill Flare X RAM (40mm tall), I'm hoping that Trident Z (44mm tall) will fit as well.Well, that rules out the G.Skill memory I was looking at.
(I also may be overly optimistic about the size of this Heatkiller Tube D5. I'll know much more about placement when it arrives.)

But depends on your personal setup of course!Well, that rules out the G.Skill memory I was looking at.
if you have space to put the pump in another way you can have the RAM clearance needed for the G.Skill maybe!
OK. How are you accounting for the fittings coming off of the pump/res and the ATX PSU? Is that taken care of by keeping the res full length and putting the gfx card in a lower slot?
Yeah, I'm planning for the fittings to remain in the same orientation as @fabio's, but for the whole res/pump to hang lower. The in/out ports should be hovering over the PCI-E slots at this point, probably below the Intel Optane drive you see in the top slot of my pictures.
(And if that orientation of the res doesn't work, I can always rotate it so that the in/out ports are facing the motherboard or the side window).
Alright well started purchasing components, ended up going with the ASRock Z390 Taichi Ultimate motherboard, G.Skill TridentZ memory, HeatKiller IV Pro, 2x GTS x-Flow rads w/ the noctua fans, HeatKiller 100mm with d5 res/pump, barrow fittings and primoflex adv lrt tubing.
Case comes tomorrow, CPU will probably be in January haha.

been looking at questions about 280mm rads. guess I'm going to have to add them too ,_,
(and some reservoirs, maybe ,_,)
If I know what you need for your diagrams I can help, but I don't understand the criteria to choose the radiator!
oh there isn't any criteria yet. just going for rads that people have brought up in the past to ask if they fit
... yeah, popularity I guess? ,_,
Ahahah, no no, was just to understand how to help you! Hell, there is the Hardware Labs GTS Nemesis of course!
And my XSPC TX Thin

Finally, almost everything in place!
More details in my build log.

That looks outstanding! I'm going to need to find someone to cut my tube I think... or perhaps give it a go with a dremel myself.
If you have a Dremel I am pretty sure you can do it! The only problem will be to have a vertical tool to do the right M4 guide for the screws in the struts!
Well this core i9 9900K is a very good cpu. However it has 2 issues currently, avaibility and price...
Even for my 2019 cpu upgrade I will consider Intel offers but only on 7nm/10nm..Zen 2 vs icy lake..
Looks like my custom loop will have to be put on hold until I can upgrade to a shorter GPU, so I'll just use my AIO (CLC 240) until then.You aren’t getting a rad+fan to fit on the front with that EVGA card.
Please see:
It's working too..
Since a couple a years, beefy aircooled GPU are working great! After it required a well vented case to breath properlly...hopefully Cerberus/X belong to well vented case..
I’m waiting for thermal pads and paste to come in so I can put my gpu back on air. The 4 slim Noctuas will be put into a pile for my loop.It's working too..
