Hi guys,

I've been doing alot of research about the NZXT switch 810 case as I was about to buy one. Though, I've seen a video whereby inserting a 360x60mm rad with push-pull blocks the top optical drive bay.

I've got a 30mm thick rad that I'll be running with push-pull, and a dual bay reservior too, does that mean I wont have space for a bluray drive??

Thanks in advance,

Pete

EDIT: Sorry I meant to title this thread NZXT Switch 810 case, I somehow seemed to forget to finish typing and now can't change it!... Apologies!

You should be able to run push-pull, if you use 12mm thin fans.

Just move the blueray drive down a couple of bays

I don't think there are enough bays to do that with a dual bay res...

surely 12mm thin fans have to run much higher than the regular 25mm fans to push the same air?
plus I've already got alot of 25mm fans so would like to use them.

You can possibly get a thinner rad.

I already have the 360x30mm rad, and I'd really rather not have to buy another one..

In case anyone else is wondering the same... there's a really simple solution.

The hotswap HDD is in one of the 5 1/4 bays. So by removing the bracket, i'll put my ODD in that slot.

Just a question, but why a triple rad with push pull? There's little difference in cooling with push pull unless you're going to have an area where the rad is sucking in ambient air from outside of the case and through the rad. Installing the rad in the top pulling ambient case air is not going to make it cooler at all.

Just my 2cents.
