Its high air flow and support 230x200x30mm fan attract me to choose this full tower chassis for my mod pc. Liquid cooling ready is my main choice so I go for Aqua Gate Max for my cooling systems. This chassis is quite heavy and should have both side panel using clips on lock instead of the old screws type. I should had the inside compartment spray before I install my mother board.

Fixing Aqua Gate Max to this chassis is not so difficult and its fun but of course it should be done with care. The radiator is fixing on top of the chassis with the screw holes all ready, but to reduce the vibration I put insulating cushions in between the radiator and the top chassis.

Cooler Master suggest the tube length should be 150mm, 250mm, 500mm appropriate proper length but I decided to do it my way, to cut it shorter so it looks neat. The radiator fan is make up some noise and should be replace with silence fan or fan with low noise below 23dB-A.

The reservoir module is easily slot in the front 5.25” drive bay but it takes up to 2 slots and what is the use for the top chassis fill port holes? It was impossible for me to fixing both the radiator and reservoir module at same level on top.

Though 1 bottle of condensed coolant (260ml) is given free but I buy 1 extra bottle (500ml) and it’s only top up to 99%, luckily I had cut the tube length shorter or else I might need to buy another bottle.
