It looks fantastic. Are you running 2 radiators?

Single 420 rad on top. Was thinking maybe adding more, but I'll add as I go, always easy to add if needed.

[View 71 RGB fans not working with TT RGB Plus]

Hey folks, Bought the View 71 case through Microcenter this weekend. Set everything up and it's all working pretty well, except the fans aren't working with the TT RGB Plus software. The case came with a little controller that we set up.The fans run and are in RGB, but it seems to only have a small set of modes. The website says that the case is supposed to work with the TT RGB Plus program to further customize the fans, but the program keeps saying "Controller can't be found".

I have read somewhere that this is a lie? Is this true? The fans that come with the case do not actually work with the software?

The View 71 comes with first generation analog control box and fans only. The analog control box is used to sync with either the rgb from a 5v header or 12v header. It can't be used with the plus software or sync controller. I made the same mistake.

 

Edit: I wish the naming scheme was bit better because the "View 71 rgb" vs the "View 71 rgb plus" is too similar a name and can confuse people. I definitely was confused when I bought mine. Had I known, I would have gotten the plus version. I was confused about the plus version until just a few min ago; at first I thought all of them were plus versions; then purchased and then assumed since I got the gen 1 version, they all shipped out gen 1.

Alright, so I finished my build a few weeks ago, but I was searching for minor tid bits of things and stumbled on this fourms, thought I might show you my build. Give some inspiration, and maybe different layout presentation. And in general to show off my build

I just bought a View 71 RGB because of cyber monday sales. It has not yet arrived, but I have some questions. I plan to migrate my build to it, and add water cooling for the processor. Regarding radiator mounts, can a 240mm radiator be mounted to the right of the motherboard, where it says 360mm radiators are supported? I cannot remove the lower HDD cage, because I need to use it. If the 240mm radiator is not supported in that position, where would you recommend mounting a radiator?

Yes, you can mount it where the 360 is mounted, but I would actually recommend either the front behind the intake fans, or the top with the fans in pull config, the fan being on the top rack.
