So I was able to cut a small hole just enough to fit a mcr320 radiator inside the case. I think fitting a triple inside the case is possible without having to cut anything else. All I did was cut a hole right above the top 5.25 bay. I also painted the inside black and got a window for it.







In some of the pictures it looks like the tubes are alittle weird but it's just the angle of the shot.

The black edition does. I got the very first one that came out that didn't have the inside painted black and the window.
