What's the best way to orient the top hat? I'm using an open air GPU and a 240 AIO. Tests show using a top hat but how are the fans set up? Pulling air from inside the case? As of now I have the top hat in the top mounted position with air being drawn from inside the case (not ideal). But on the...

I bought some new M3 screws for the top hat that fit great! Could have been my case but it finally is complete and looks good. I used M3x12 FYI. So I noticed you can't screw in the top grill if using the top hat (just the magnetic grips). Is this true or did I install it wrong?

Has anyone tried to screw a top hat down with the provided screws? They aren't long enough and I can't secure it down. Is it me or is this a huge oversight? I'm using the longest screw provided. I'm about to sell this... waited for over a year and provided screws aren't long enough? QC problem?

Anyone interested in trading their Medium Top Hat for my Large one? I'm not gonna use my AIO setup anymore and would like to throw a couple of 120mm fans in it. I guess they technically can fit in the large, but it won't be as functional. Thanks.

So if I'm going to use the FTW3 with a large top hat (S24 AIO), will I require the angle PCIe power adapter? Thanks.

Have we establish if a blower style or open air GPU works best? I'm gonna be using the Fractal S24 for CPU cooling with large top hat FYI.

Well I paid with a CC so I can dispute if need be :D lol... but I doubt they will bail.

So have we established what is the best CPU AIO for this case? Looking to go ahead and buy something.

Find me a 1080ti that's around 750 plz lol

You should buy it.... totally worth it. I’d love to be able to find that card for $800. How long ago was this?

Lucky... been stalking the nvidia website and it's rare to see stock anymore. Hopefully this mining craze is over soon.

Im running the LG 32GK850G-B This thing is an absolute beast! 31.5 inches 2560x1440 Gsync 144HZ VA panel and I literally have zero backlight bleed.... I'm shocked! When did you get ur 1080ti? I'd kill for one!

Can't believe I just randomly logged into nowinstock website today and saw a pre-order for MSI 1080ti AERO OC for $739 plus tax... definitely thought this was a fluke. So I click on it and bam... ordered! Holy cow what a blessing!! Just in time for my 31.5" 1440p monitor woohoo!!

I’d love to get a 1080ti by I’m about to receive a 32” 1440p monitor and want to push some decent frames. Currently sporting the 980ti.

Whats the trend on availability on Nvidia’s website for a 1080ti? This morning I got an alert from nowinstock for the Titan and shortly after the 1080ti was available... of course I missed out on it.

So Jay said he couldn't get the S24 to fit?! That's the preferred AIO for this case with large top hat... what the deuce!? I thankfully haven't bought one yet.

So is 10 series GPUs end of life or are they still in production?

So if Nvidia is supposedly not gonna come out with a new GPU soon, how can you explain the stoppage of manufacturing the 10 series? If that's the case it's basically 2nd hand stock and that's it! I haven't seen even the Titan Xp in stock and it was a couple of days ago. This is a very strange...

Hey guys I'm still sporting the 980ti. I am thinking of upgrading to the 1080ti but rumors are they have stopped production. Should I just wait for the next gen or what? I'm not paying these inflated MSRP prices. I will pay for a Titan Xp if it comes in stock but not sure what to do now. Thanks

I’d prefer not to run my GPU 100% of the day. Reduces lifespan way faster... unless if you don’t care of course.

Why are you switching PSUs? I have the SF600 and plan on using it in the Ghost.

What the crap is up with these GPU prices? I’m never paying over over MSRP but these prices are crazy inflated... is mining that popular now? Is this ever gonna change?

A closed loop AIO CPU and GPU cooler? How bad ace would this be... I mean is creating one himself or using the perfect 'other' manufacturer combo? Still awesome!

Yea you're right.. my bad for not seeing that. I currently have Corsair H75. I guess I could use this with a single fan setup, unless you guys recommend anything better. My 7700k is delid now and temps are really really impressive. Totally worth it.. I paid someone to do it so I had no...

Okay so clearly the NZXT Kraken x31 AIO cooler is at it's End of Life so prices are skyrocketing over MSRP. Is the new version compatible with the Ghost (Kraken X42)? Thanks.

I was told the EVGA SC2 Hybrid 1080ti fan is quite loud. Someone said they just swapped it to a similar sized Noctua and that helped.

Was the dual AIO installation tough? This would definitely keep temps down overall.

Oh okay cool. If I go with a S24 I'll be able to probably hit 5ghz on my 7700k. I had it delidded so temps are great now with just my H75 cooler. I won't buy a new GPU till this thing is practically in the mail. 980ti is good for now

Hey guy's it looks like I'll be switching over to the large top hat and probably Fractal S24. Would it be beneficial going with a blower style GPU or something like the EVGA 1080ti SC Black? I can't justify the FTW3 b/c performance gains are minimal and price is too high.

Are there any tests with air cooled CPU temps vs Open Air GPU and Blower Style? Thanks!

Mind if I ask how you did this? Scared me since I just bought them.

I really want to use the L12, but that would require to remove RAM heat spreader. I have gskill trident z 44mm tall

Okay thanks. Maybe this case is designed well enough that a air cooled CPU with open air GPU cooler won't be affected as much. That's another reason why I went with delid... want as low as possible temps.

Are there any temp test on Founder Edition vs Open Air coolers for GPUs in this case? For the price I was considering getting the 1080ti FE, but it's $699 + tax ($760). If I buy the EVGA 1080ti FTW3 it's $799 from B&H with no Tax... so $30 difference isn't bad... also the SC2 version is $760 i...

What is this special gift going to be? I just want the top hat handle so I can get it out of my bag easier since I'll be traveling by air a lot (security).

A freaking top hat with a handle? Booya! This will work great lifting it out of my wallye bag :)

I will have my case!! Thank goodness! Now let's just accelerate that timeline... January?! Haha

The Kickstarter app shows different from the website... very strange

Why does the goal keep going up? We should be fully funded.

So are you guys going to use the 240 AIO on the bottom or top? I'm still trying to figure that one out
