Two fans under the motherboard either binging air in from the bottom or blowing out the top depending on orientation of the case
Alright, here's what I have on the ASUS ROG Strix X570-I Gaming as well as the Swiftech Apogee Drive II. Details for the photos are in the description of each of the pictures.
I hope you guys find this useful. Let me know if there's any measurement or angle I missed that would be beneficial to include.
EDIT: added two more pictures showing total vertical and horizontal distance between VRM/M.2 heatsinks and the RAM. The embedded Imgur link may not update to reflect the added pictures, so just open up the Imgur post and scroll to the bottom. Based on the measurements I got, crossed referenced with the official specs from Noctua's website, there is no way the NH-L12S will fit on this motherboard.

Cooling - Pictures and Measurements for Reference on the ASUS ROG Strix X570-I Gaming and Swiftech Apogee Drive II

there is no option for having 0 posts, which sets everyone not having posted at all on the same level als people having up to 50 posts on here, is that intended?
I also have a question regarding cooling solution which I have to choose in the form. I own an l12s and recently ordered an lt240, so I'll have both of them soon, and the question is which one should I choose in the form, which one is more preferable?
I can test both of them in my build, if you need so, and also I currently have an SFX-L PSU, which obviously won't fit in the case with lt240, and there are no corsair sf750 on the market in my country at all (hope they'll back to stock soon), so it's possible that I'll use an l12s for the first time, until i'll get an sf750.
Considering this thread has been open since 2018, I used below 50 as a reasonable scale for a lurker/person who just found this thread
Pick the one you will ultimately leave in your build once you are finally finished.
Well I just subscribed...
Let's see what I can do in sidearm after my Cerberus-X and SM550..
I'm looking to swap from my current 120mm CPU radiator loop to a 240 one. How well do sandwich cases like this accommodate the easily available prebuilt CPU loops? Having to upgrade either way I'm wondering if going for a custom loop for the first time would be worth it.
Is this for new entries and people who got deleted? Or does everyone need to fill it out again?
hmm, from what I've seen in the google sheet most people are below 50, but most of those are at straight 0
The radiator didn't fit because its not the 240mm radiator that was suggested. Wahaha said the only 240 rad he suggests is the LT240, which is 25mm in height. The rad used in this video is the ST30. Thats a 5mm difference.
ST30: L x W x H: 275 x 124 x 30 mm
LT240: L x W x H: 270 x 120 x 25 mm
I think Ali's advice is still on the safe side. Wahaha also advise against the 240mm Radiators, the demand for it was big enough that he actually have to have 240mm official support Tmach1.
Though what he did end up being useful since we finally know that a bigger than LT240 Rad (275 x 124 x 25mm) should be able to fit.

Unfortunately the LT240 is difficult to find in Australia. However, it is luckily available from overclockers UK which does ship to Australia.
Hey! I am newly registered user in this resource. This case seems to be very interesting. I am from Uzbekistan. Is it possible to be added to Test Shipping list? At least as a candidate? The Google Form doesn't give me an access. It seems my country is not in your list. :/
PS. I have chosen Russia as my country, though. If this is a breach of the rules, you have the right to discard my application.

Yeah, 2 slims vs 1 slim 1 fat for the extra 5mm of a rad, but no slim custom cables meaning less airflow. I wonder what the difference in performance is...
Plus it makes me wonder if there will be a v2 just 1-2-3mm taller to make Ali's setup manageable
If the st30 fits maybe the xspc tx240 fits also. Its dimensions are 278 x 125 x 20. Iknow it has been said that the tx240 doesn´t fit becuse its too wide, but... just saying... or maybe de corsair xr5 which measures 280 x 120 x 30 can fit... I don´t want to talk too much about 240 rads because it´s too early and its all speculation. but if optimumtech could fit a 30 mm thick rad with two 15mm thick fans... theres going to be a lot (even more) of talking about this 240 mm rad thing.
