I have a Phantek Eclipse P400 TG Black/White case and I am happy with it, since it was picked by my special girl.

I have been thinking about buying a couple of AIO's but not sure how to position them in the case.

For my i7-6700K I been thinking about Fractal Design's Celsius S24 because I really the design and it performance good, but not sure if it can fit in the top of the case if it doesn't then I will put it in the front.

For my MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FE I want to put a EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC Hybrid kit on it but I don't want it in the back of my case, but if the S24 doesn't fit in the top maybe I but it in the front and than put it rad for the EVGA kit on top closes to the back.

It won't fit in top of the case, but that will take 2x 140mm fans, I researched the option too. If you want to get a good impression of this case, look at this review here, its in Dutch, but awesome pics and with a 240 rad in there too. Basically front intake through rad, with some top outtakes to get the air through and out the case faster seems the way to go.

For custom AIO or a full loop I think the P400S is not a good case. This one is really tailored for a single 240 or 280 (Kraken X62 fits nicely as u can see). You can put a 360 in front as well but that will take your bottom expansion bays along with it.

I like the case too, got mine coming in tomorrow :) But I'll be going air on it, 4x 140mm front -in + top-out and a thermalright grand macho RT on the CPU > has 1mm left to play with in height lol. Its a really tight case.

Phanteks makes some slick and solid stuff, but they seem to have issues with airflow for high performance systems across multiple models. The Enthoo doesn't like a 360 in the top either, the grill doesn't let enough air through. Anyhoo, nothing a few fans can't fix.
