i want to install a 120x3 rad into a case but what case will hold it? i was thinking about the CMStacker but it looks like it only will do 2 unless i cutt the hole on the bottom bigger
 
U2-UFO or Opti1203 from MountainMods will do it without additional mods. Other than that...

LianLi PC75, Chieftec Dragon / Scorpion Full towers, and most other full towers will hold a triple across the top. Stacker upright in the drive bays but will only leave u with one or 2 free for use by drives.

LianLi v2xxx - flat on the floor of lower section after removing HDD cages.
 
the best case i have used for a triple rad is the stacker. remove the upper psu cage, and mount it to the top of the case.
 
The newer Mountain Mods UFO is a direct bolt in for the Thermochill 120.3 radiators in the front, no cutting or modding required. Or if you wish, you can remove the 9 bay HD rack and mount a dual 120 radiator from Black Ice or Swiftech, no mods required. Or if you really feel crazy you can mount both..........;)

"ThermoChill PA 120.3 Radiator"

Bringing the "King of Cool" crown home... The PA120 radiator series features a dual-row dual-pass 120mm form factor, available in single, double and triple sizes, optimised for the fans of today and putting into practice everything learned about watercooling efficiency and performance over the past 3 years. The PA Series boasts from 10-40% better performance over the HE Series. 10% for the high / noisy airflow end of the fan market, and up to 40% for the low airflow / silence end of the market.

This radiator fits into our U2-UFO and U2-UFO Opti1203 cases without the need for modification to the case or radiator!
 
thanks for the help maybe ill get a LLi case but 300+ for just a case id rather make my own

Or get the 810 stacker which has no upper psu :D
 
Ive got a 120X3 in the front of my CM stacker. Leaves room for the i/o panel with a CD drive and one HD above it. Very tight but it fits. I also crammed a fan controller in the bottom slot, technically the radiator hogs that slot too, but the controller fits in front of it. Ive got a pic of it somewhere if you'd like to see.
I didnt feel like taking the hole saw to my case so I didnt mount it in the top, but that would be my second choice.
 
areocool masstige

reverse atx = psu on bottom

3x120 will clear by 1/2 inch on the top for a sick tight fit.

90bucks for one

very stacker like
 
Danager Den sells a shroud that fits a dual rad in the mesh openeing at the bottom of the the Stacker.

You can fit a triple rad along the bottom, front, or top of the stacker if you want to do some moding.
