Hey [USER=9736]@diceboii13[/USER] - I am sufficiently excited for your case that I want to buy parts for my Fractal Nano S that I can later migrate into your case when it's available. So I wanted to ask you a few questions before I buy anything, and figured that there might be some folks interested as well. If you don't know yet because something might change, please say so, but otherwise let me know if my plan will work.The pump, obviously. I believe earlier you said you could go either D5 pump or DDC, but you'd have to pick. Will it be DDC-only at launch? I'd prefer D5, but if its only DDC I'm probably going to go with the Alphacool DDC310 as it seems to be focused on low noise. My understanding is I should not need a pump top as the pump will fit into the distro plate. Correct?The Radiators. The case says it's 161 mm wide. On a previous page, you said the 153mm-wide Hardware Labs Nemesis 280GTS would fit. I just want to double-check that's still the case. These are too wide for some cases (like my FD Nano S). My other option is to go with a single 45mm thick radiator, like the Alphacool XT45 280mm radiator or the EK CE 280. The single radiator would perform worse than two thinner ones, but double 57mm expands puts me at 19.2L, versus 18.4L for 73+27. I think that close a difference I'd go with two radiators to run the fans slower and quieter.The CPU block. Are there any potential clearance issues above the CPU itself? Should I worry at all about blocks with side fittings or just not think about it? Would I be best suited with the 2-slot GPU and 74mm tall CPU area, since I would be water cooling the GPU? I dunno why you'd buy the case and not watercool your GPU but to each their own.If you go with the 2-slot GPU version, is there space next to the GPU to add fittings without hitting the sides? In JayzTwoCents' Ghost S1 dual-rad build he had issues with 90 degree fittings pushing out on the side of the case if he didn't use barb fittings. Have you tested the fittings clearance when using a waterblock? Or should I go with the 3-slot version to be safe?If you need a beta tester let me know. I'm a water cooling newbie but I plan on building the custom loop in my FD Nano S first before moving into your case later this year (assuming everything goes according to plan). Thanks! Big props to you and [USER=12420]@alauder[/USER] on this.
