I'm considering installing a WC system in a V1100 Case, probably using a Black Ice Pro 120 mm.
Does anybody have experience from that (I have searched all threads but not found relevant info)? More specifically, can/should he radiator be fitted on the inside of the case (using the 120 mm back case fan) or does it need to go on the outside? Any comments would be much appreciated. Pierran |

Fancy shmancy case!
I would hang it off the back with a swiftech radbox to give it fresh air, and to avoid modding that expensive case. You could also mount it directly to that 120 fan opening and have the fan suck air through it, but you would be dumping the hot air into the case (not a huge deal). |

Great case and I love the setup with mobo on top and psu on bottom in it's own seperate area. you can fit alot of extra stuff on the bottom if you are willing to "make" your harddrives comfortable somewhere else in the case like the top area. Good luck.

I'm using a V1000B for my 1st watercooled PC actually. I removed the front HD bay and put a fan/radiator/shroud/fan set up in it and yet another in the rear of the case. The radiators are 120mm Black Ice Extremes.
This being my 1st set up I'm having troubles dealing w/ tube runs and bleeding, but all in all it looks like it'll work out. One Warning, I'm using a Swifty 6002a block an and it comes close to the rear radiator set up but still clears it well enough, might not work w/ a three barb design though. Mobo is a MSI K8N Neo2 btw if that helps. |
