Hi guys,
Just bought the following components.
Asus X99 Rampage V Extreme ROG
32GB DDDR4 mem
5820k CPU
Corsair H110 cooler..
And just realized that the H110 cooler won't fit in my current case Corsair 600T.
So have been looking at the NZXT H440W Silent Ultra Case, it only supports up to ATX, so my question is - is that big enough for my motherboard?
Do you guys have any recomendations on other cases?
Sincerely
Mads

Enthoo Pro .... Case of the year for 2014.... fits 280 and 420 rads on top ... see page 29 of manual at link below

However, a better option might be to swap out the h110 for the much better Swiftech H220-X ..... not only does it have betetr thermals, lower noise, better construction (all copper / brass not aluminum) it also can be expanded to include RAM, MoBo and GFX water blocks.

http://www.hitechlegion.com/reviews/cooling/liquid/4087...
While the H220X is an obvious choice for the novice, it also has some incredible benefits for the enthusiast looking to do a smaller loop. When you break it down, the H220X is a collection of excellent components that simply happen to come in one box. The included Apogee XL is top notch, and recently took home a Hi Tech Legion Gold Award. The MCP30 pump has a head pressure of over 2 meters, with over 1GPM flow and PWM control, making it a perfect choice for a 3-4 component loop. The radiator is an excellent quality copper/brass piece that delivers excellent low rpm performance, and the attached reservoir is easily accessible. 3/8” ID tubing is used throughout, and there is plenty of length to simply make one cut to add a GPU in most builds. In other words, you have a small loop in a box with every component being top quality, and may be the same components you would have been looking at in the first place.
Installation of the H220X was very easy, probably the easiest liquid cooler I have ever done. A huge part of this is thanks to the use of the Apogee XL block, which is a flagship top tier block and has a mounting system fitting of that stature. I had noted just how easy the install was when I reviewed the block alone, and comparing it to the Asetek/CoolIt/etc. kits, it is absolutely a world better. The radiator/pump/reservoir assembly go in simply with fan screws to your desired location in the case. The PWM splitter is as easy as it gets, and takes absolutely all of the guesswork out of the wiring setup.
In terms of performance, well….we could simply leave it at the fact that the H220X is simply the best performing out-of-the-box cooler you can buy today. Period. It slightly betters its predecessor, the H220, as well as the Glacer 240L that is equipped with far more powerful and louder fans. The NZXT X60/61 comes close in terms of performance, but at the expense of far more noise and far less compatibility. 240mm CLCs can’t touch the H220X in all out performance, and at tolerable noise levels the H220X flat out embarrasses them. The Cryorig R1 and Noctua NH-D15 come closest in matching the H220X in terms of performance and noise, but fall short. What more can you say? We put the best out of the box solutions up against the H220X, and the H220X walked away a clear winner and did so with absolutely astonishing performance to noise. With all of this performance the H220X never topped 40 dB at full speed.
.....There is not a 240mm CLC or air cooler that can beat it, and it does it at 20+ dB quieter than the competing CLCs. To sum it up; the H220X offers better performance, lower noise, better aesthetics, flawless design and build, better components and the option of expandability when compared to a CLC. Putting it gently, choosing any CLC over the H220X would be doing yourself a huge disservice. If you are looking to step into liquid cooling, or looking to start a small loop, the H220X is the obvious choice and comes with our highest recommendation and Hi Tech Legion Editor’s Choice Award.
Swapping either one....I think either way you'll be impressed.

....Many looking to delve into the world of liquid cooling start out with a unit that is ready-to-go right out of the box, simply because the idea of setting up a loop can be a little daunting. However, with a CLC you are limited to only what it is, and only the performance it can deliver as assembled. With that in mind, the H220X makes infinitely more sense as a starting point into liquid cooling. It is ready to go out of the box and requires no maintenance, but it is also fully expandable when you are ready to take the next step. Even if you aren’t looking to take the next step, the H220X outperforms every CLC on the market, and does it at more than 20 dB quieter. Plus, it actually looks like an open loop cooler, simply because it is one.While the H220X is an obvious choice for the novice, it also has some incredible benefits for the enthusiast looking to do a smaller loop.

Thanks for your excellent reply, but here in Denmark its hard to get our hands on phanteks and swiftech.
I've choosen to go for the Corsair 780T black/red and believe i need to stick with my H110 cooler and later add water cooling for my sli 780gtx at a later time..

Well ya can't "add" anything with the H100, the loop can't be opened / expanded.
Swiftech Outlets in Denmark are:

http://www.coolerkit.dk/
Tho I don't expect they'll be stocking till October 1st
Phanteks outlets are
