I have a liquid cooler and fans on both sides of the radiator.

lol, at most you'll hear the sound of the air flowing through the case. You'll barely hear it granted you put silent fans in there as well. I personally am not hellbent on getting mine completely silent. My computer is in my room, and I normally have the chassis fans set at full speed with the...

It is relatively quiet. Most of the noise I hear is from the fan that came with my CPU cooler which makes a slight humming sound, but overall the system is quiet.

I have the R3 running a 2500k @ 4.5ghz with 2 GTX 560 ti 448 cores in SLI, and system temp is around 29C. My gpu's idle @ around 40C and 35C at 50% fan speed. I have 1 intake at the top, 2 intakes in the front, and an exhaust in a push-pull at the rear. 3 of the 4 fans are Gelid Wing 120mm's and...

Thanks! I will be getting some of those corsair braided cables next to tidy things up a little. I'm sure a thick rad in the front will work . It might be tricky though since the front fans are clipped in through some fan filters which are then screwed into the chassis. Then if I'm not...

You know what, I think this case did come with a 5.25" to 3.5" bracket already installed in the case, but I took it out. Now I just gotta remember what I did with it!

Haha well I would love to get a real water cooling system in here, but I'm fairly new to building computers, this being my second build, and I'm just pacing myself as I learn new stuff :). 360's won't fit, but I've seen 240's done in this case. I do like the idea of the L-shaped brackets, but...

Oops, guess it would help if the image url worked lol... http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x115/glassdanse85/579341_10150816083243587_530808586_9786269_779345311_n.jpg That is basically what I did here, but I actually had to screw the case leg from the bottom into a pre-drilled hole of the...

I just took out the original hdd cage in my Fractal R3 and replaced it with this xigmatek hdd cage, but it looks a little too ghetto IMO... I'm just looking for a second opinion or maybe another suggestion on mounting a single 3.5" drive for a cleaner look. <img...
