Does it not just fit anyways?

The only trouble I've had with AIO water coolers is cases with horizontal support bars. ( Old TT cases need the bar cut away in order to fit these)

Nah, there's a small steel piece riveted on that is for the tool-less side panel attachment (which I don't like). Even if I remove that, I don't think that there is enough space under the PSU & above the indentation for the expansion slots

Thanks for the responses guys.... Yeah I battled with that thought. ....However I still might do that when I transfer to my Corsair 800D

LOL Funny.... I originally picked up the Switch 810 with the idea of modding it. What stopped me was getting a brand new 800D for free.

Probably a used GTX460...even the GTS450 was overkill, but I bought it for $50 and re-sold it (as part of a C2D system) for basically twice that. I figure I might as well jump on the opportunity to get something faster

I normally find if it doesn't leak within 10 minutes then your good to go... I've not had any problems with leaks happening I must admit...

How long was it left running for??
