    As you can see the H105 (Not supported for 350D)does fit but you have to offset the radiator and its a pretty snug fit.

    Nice because you choose Obsidian 350D It's nicest mATX case after Caselabs models. 
    Case is small but it's perfectly design. 2x240mm radiators allow watercooling for CPU + 2 GPU.
    From that side is much better than my Obsidian 650D where in huge space Mid tower you need to make modification for second 240mm radiator.
    Nice case. Now I would choose probably Obsidian 450D, because it's smaller, only little bigger than 350D,
    mATX boards look nice inside but you have space and for E-E-AXT just in case. 
    Hardware inside is excellent for gaming.

    Thanks! Yeah I'm not into the serious case setups with full custom loops and all that but I'll do AIO coolers all day long. I'm tempted to get another 980Ti for SLI, but I'll have to wait for the corsair HG10 for the 980Ti to be released or go with the NZXT G10 since ACX cooling isn't SLI friendly.
     
    I've always been a fan of smaller cases I used to have the 650D myself and while it was a nice case it was just too big, the 350D is the perfect size but still has plenty of space for as you said 2x240MM rads if necessary.

    I think it's better to keep your GTX980Ti until NVIDIA launch Pascal. Than again performance improvements will be as this year.
    People who decide to buy GTX980Ti made better decision that others who invest in second GTX780Ti... Same will be and with Pascal.
    You will like new design, more video memory, HBM, etc... it will be much finer build than Fury X.

    probably right. 2016 should be an awesome year for GPU. DX12, HBM 2.0, etc.
