I’ve just sold my Shift X and I’m looking forward to SV540. Waiting for the good news...
Hi, all!
Any reviews this case?
I am going to look into the new EK that I have gotten emails from them about. They showed the final version earlier at CES. The hoses come out of the side of the cpu block instead of the top so then its just a matter of how tall the block ends up being. I'm hopeful that being EK we will get something very nice as far as quality components used. They are saying it is "priced competitively" so it may end up being their aluminum line of rads. Pictures on KitGuru if you're interested.So I was looking to use an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 as my AIO for this case, due to its thicker radiator. However, the CPU block is 53mm high without tubes and clearance is listed as 55mm for the case. The CPU block looks like this: https://www2.arctic.ac/liquidfreeze...sites/2/2019/07/Liquid_Freezer_II_240_G04.jpg
I am guessing that isn't going to fly?
Ah shoot, I just ordered this AIO ... thanks for the típ, gonna contact Newegg to cancel it before it ships ...So I was looking to use an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 as my AIO for this case, due to its thicker radiator.

No, tubes that come out the top of the block (like this or the EVGA or Fractal Design CLCs) generally don't work in cases with low CPU cooler clearance. Stick with tubes or ports that are on the side of the block.Ah shoot, I just ordered this AIO ... thanks for the típ, gonna contact Newegg to cancel it before it ships ...
Thanks for the heads up, wasn't aware of that option. Hopefully it's better quality than the usual 360mm RGB unicorn vomit AIOs on the market these days. I just want a high performing AIO with one cable for the pump and nothing else.I am going to look into the new EK that I have gotten emails from them about.
