corsair 900d aka Godzilla

[woodall57]

this case is absolutely huge



anyone have an 800d? im thinking of getting one just for the future as i want to expand and get a beast pc, and the way i see it is that components go out of date and turn worthless as where as a case will be okay for ages

Probably just the rad compartment at the bottom, other than that, looks like a normal large case.

*awaits Ste to post behemoth case*

[chris-red]

[Jayy]

Ah, I was looking at the Case Labs one and then looking at the fans on the side of the Corsair one... either way, looks like just that compartment is added on to your case in extra size.

That's got 2 x psu's, 4 x gpu cards, 8 x hdd, 8 x ssd & 4 separate water cooling loops.

And more to the point, what is an agility 3 doing in a build of that calibre?

And as for those cases, the original Level 10 quite literally used to bend and sag under it's own weight, typical Thermaltake rubbish. The white 600Ts are things of beauty mind

Ste... how come your case is so small?

Seriously, it looks so jammed in there, it doesn't look very efficient at all. What happens when you need to whip a GPU out? Will take you about 3 hours!

Seb is right, those agility 3's are bad news! They might be cheap but I'd rather stick with Intel / Samsung on SSDs.

Still a sweet set up though

Full spec list please Ste.

The Agility 3 SSDs are okay in my experience. There were 8 of them in that that were connected to a megaraid & fastpath chip.

The two PSUs... SSDs and sata drives were connected to both, the graphics cards were connected to one, whilst the motherboard and CPU were connected to the other. They were modular but mostly all the cables were in use. I used www.add2psu.com for connecting the two PSUs together.

The cards were XFX 7970 with EK waterblocks.

Why watercool the discs?

Cos it adds more tubing and makes it more complicated.
