CPU cooler height limitation: 230mm
So highest part on the motherboard - total height = space available for radiators and fans.
The GPU is most likely the highest part, so measure it (dont forget to add cable space) and you will be able to tell how much space you got left.

Limitations for the radiator thickness at the top of the case are 48mm with all ODD cages in. With the top ODD cage taken out, it is 92 mm (you can take out the second and the third too, of course). The rest is only limited by your hardware.

No problem, I have been working out that problem for my X9 build, so its nice to share it.

If you want me to measure the X9 for you, I can do that. Got a ruler right here

Sure. My current though is 64mm rad + 38mm fan or 102mm total.
Also, while you are at it, can you measure the bottom bay, both width and height?

The X9 has about 51mm clearance to the top ODD, 99mm to the second ODD and 142mm to the third ODD. With a 102mm thick setup, you'd end up with only one usable ODD (assuming it longer than 360mm).
What bottom bay to you mean? The bottom ODD bay or the other HDD bays at the bottom of the case?

I mean the section bellow the motherboard. As I'm going crazy and modding space for 4 rads down there, but havent found any clear numbers on that part of the case yet.
Also, I dont need more then 1 ODD, and that is for my fan controller. Will get an external dvd case, for the few times I need it.
