I can confirm TX240 fits at the bottom. Unsure of 280mm rads in general.

I wonder if Apoge drive II could fit in SM580. As CPU waterblock/DDC pump combo it will save a lot of space..;)

This would be incredibly tight. The apogee is stock config is about 66 or 67 mm with fittings. If you angle the inlet/outlet, and use 90 degree fittings, it'll barely clear a Ghost S1 side panel which allows for 65mm coolers. The SM series has a 55mm cooler height limitation, so I don't think till work.

This was covered earlier in the thread - the Apogee Drive II has fittings that are too tall to work, it barely fits in the Ghost S1 which has much higher CPU cooler clearance.
Best Pump/block combo that works in the SM5x0 is the Eisbaer LT from Alphacool, but be warned this pump is designed for one rad, one CPU, one GPU, and not too much more. After that, you'll need to find a place to fit a DDC.

Ddc will easily fit on the gpu side. I have tested it in my build(even though I currently keep pump on the cpu side, as gpu is air cooled for now)

Can you show us how you mounted yours? It's always helpful to see for people new to the case or those of us already familiar with it.

Any idea of when new Sliger revisions will include PCIE 4.0?

Also is there a 120mm fan you'd recommend other than Noctua? 30 bucks a piece kinda hurts.

Question about Bifurcated PCIe Riser.

If I did a Elgato Capture Card, RTX 2080ti by EVGA the 2 slot card and a 2tb m.2 will I be ok? or will I run out of PCI lanes

I have been pretty impressed by the 140mm Arctic Bionix fans that I got for $12, and they have a 120mm version as well. The Scythe Kaze fans are a good value too from what I've experience on the Fuma 2; nearly as well performing as the noctuas but slightly louder at $11.

The Bifurcation has no impact on the other parts of the system. You take your x16 slot and split them into two x8 slots. The rest of the stuff (m.2 etc) is unaffected.

Today looks to finally be the day that my 580 arrives, and lo-and-behold its snowing here again. I suppose we'll see if UPS is more adept in Denver's winter conditions than FedEx. Fingers cross that I'll get it assembled tonight and will have confirmation that the EVGA CLC280 fits.

I'm guessing you mean this fan:


Noctua NH-P12 reduxes are $13, perform nearly as well and are very quiet

I found Noctua NF-P12 redux, is it the same as the one you mentioned?

Yeah that's the one. Got four of those in my build

They look quite nice, and $14 a piece is great. You can only fit two on the SM550/560 right?

If you know, if I get the 560 should I keep my l9a for the 3600X or change my cooler? If I keep it I need the vented panels?
