Re: Watercooling in a FT05
The manual here: http://www.silverstonetek.com/downloads/Manual/case/Multi-FT05-Manual.pdf Is quite good at talking about clearances etc. Can't talk to the H320, ended up going for a prolimatech genesis with a couple of noctua fans for the CPU which fitted (just about!) and seems to be fine with the...

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
According to 'Fan Xpert', the slowest they go is around 500rpm at around 80% power (I presume that's 80% of 12v). They come attached to the built-in speed regulators (built into the case), but I've got them attached to a DC compatible header on my motherboard. They aren't PWM unfortunately. They're ...

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
Well I've built mine now, working well. The genesis cooler fits fine (and can be fitted post motherboard installation), cabling is a bit tricky as it's quite compact behind the motherboard tray, but no complaints. I can confirm that a 160mm PSU fits OK the HDD cage still in place (I went for a corsa...

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
FWIW, just pulled the trigger on an FT05 based build, with a Genesis (went for some notua NF-A14s to mount on it), plus dual Strixs. I might have splurged a little
So I'll let you know how I get on/how quiet it is.

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
Have you built this yet?
I'm looking at the FT05 + Prolimatech Genesis as well and wondering how everything fits!

Re: Watercooling in a FT05
I think that may be the way I'm heading, just sticking to air cooling. Was interested in AIO, mainly as it's been a while since I built a PC so wanted to try out the latest trends. But as I want to keep things nice and quiet, might just stick to a reasonable heat-sink.

Watercooling in a FT05
I'm looking to build a new PC based around the Silverstone FT05 (noteable because of the 90 degree change in motherboard orientation), and am looking for some advice around whether or not it's worth going for an AIO solution for a heatsink in a FT05. I'm planning to try and run two ASUS Strix 980s, ...

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
I am almost 100% sure that the Corsair PSU in my build will force me to remove the HDD tray. However, i was going to do that anyway, since i will only be installing SSD's (the FT05 has two slots for SSD's behind the motherboard). FWIW, I just took a bit of a longer look at the FT05 user manual, and...

Re: Could use a sanity check of my Haswell-E builld
I was interested to know if you've built this rig yet, as I'm looking to build something similar, based on an FT05. My main concern is around the PSU and how it might fit with regard to the HDD tray. Silverstone say that a 160mm PSU should fit, but there's nothing quite like trying it to test out th...
