I ordered my Ncase res over a month ago...I got an email today that the tracking was reprinted, and I just got the res two days ago...yeah
The product looks and feels good, but damn, I'd expect a hand carved res at that rate.
You can also fit an entire rad on the bottom, which is what I did.
I've never designed anything but I've built and rebuilt in the case trying to squeeze more into in. What that render you did on the right...you maybe could lower the res and fan holes into it. Move the serial plate into the new...
Oddly enough with the rad that I had, which was a magicool, two screw holes lined right up towards the front. Had some extra case screws that were wide top and fit perfectly. It is only screwed at that point, but...I'm not going to flip it over so I'm not to worried about it. It's not moving...
You can really do whatever you want with the case, you can fit the rads with no issues, I just mounted my 240 on the bottom and a 120 on the side (have 4tb hdd, and mcres mounted on other half) I started running the tubing, waiting on some more fittings. 45 angle fittings help, but it is very...
I just got my 30mm rad in today, and put it under the waterblocked GPU, it has exactly 15mm of room between the waterblock and the screw holes.
Going to order some slimmer fans and keep you posted.
I do have a question. I have the swiftech mcres, mounted in the HDD Cage next to the PSU...there...
Installed the 30mm rad just now, after measuring the top to the waterblock it is exactly 15mm. So, you can fit a 240mm rad on the bottom as well, 30mm rad with 12mm fans.
Ordering fans right now
Well, I had a swiftech 240mm rad, the specs said it was about 37mm, and when I put on the 15mm fans I couldn't get the card in by the closest of all margins....I was pretty pissed haha.
Returned that, ordered a 29mm I believe it is. Now that I think about it, if I would have removed the i/o...
I currently have all the parts, and am working on waterblocking the 290x atm. At this point, since everything is laid out, two SFX PSU's will not fit IF you keep the internal res. Now, if you get the rear res the 3.5 HDD will fit between the second power supply and the side of the case, though...
It would be nice, and would fit perfectly. In the end I will end up doing so, and using the SF45's in other itx builds.
As for progress on the Ncase, it was halted last night when my girlfriend demanded I fix the light in the bedroom...and tomorrow I am off to Wisconsin for 3 days so. More...
Fyi

Again, why am I doing this? To have the most powerful PC in the smallest form factor, and from what I have read, a watercooled R9 290x OC'd stomps pretty much everyone out there, or very close to it.
Your also...
I just picked up the rads at Microcenter today. I will put them in tonight and post how much room is left. The plastic assembly on the R9 is pretty massive, you may not be able to do a push/pull with 25mm fans, but I'm sure one set would fit.
From what I have seen the R9 under full load will suck down close to 300w simply on its own. I'm all for not having to spend $200 on two PSU's but I will install one and test, but to OC it will need more.
Thinking of the heatkiller GPU-X for the waterblock. I will order some parts tonight, and...
