Ok, long story short I need to put 4 radiators inside a case with shrouds and fans. I was looking at the 830 CM because it offers the side panel which can hold up to 4 120mm fans, perfect for what I need, however, I wanna put a graphics card in my PC as well....
I've done all the measurements, CM says the width of the case is 25cm, the fan is 3.8cm and the radiator + shroud is 12.7cm. That leaves enough room for a graphics card 8.5cm wide.
I've been doing some research and a 7800GTX is 10cm wide, which means I'm 1.5cm short at least.
My question is this: how does CM measure their cases, is it from the outside to outside or inside to inside? Also, how much room is between the side of the case and the fan holder? How far does the fan holder pertrude inside the case? And lastly...
Is what I want to do even possible with this case?
