as for the v2000 case.. yea i'm definately more than alittle tempted to go internal mounting as well.. its like having a minifridge in the room... its 2 feet tall, 2 feet deep, 8 inches wide.... but believe it or not you still need to do alittle cutting to fit a 2x120mm rad in the case. The only place you can fit it without cutting (for a 2x120 mm+ radiator) is placing it where the where the 5.25" bay drives are and moving the dvdrw drive down to the lowest 5.25" slot. even then you can only have one drive, which screws me over cause i was planning on using the 5.25" bay res. that i bought in the case and such a setup would exclude that.... i'm starting to think that cutting wouldn't be so bad... its just where to cut......
also if you're considering the v2000 and don't care *too* much about temps a 2x80mm rad fits perfectly above the psu (see pics: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowIm...e%20-%20Retail) |
I've already got the PA160.1, so I'm committed on that front. My choice is to go external with my existing case - an Antec SLK3000B - or get a P180 and go the route that brucoman has gone with an internal setup. That case looks perfect for the PA160.1. After the install you still have three 5.25" bays above and room for 4 (3?) hdd below. That is plenty for me. And the case is quiet.
