Just got my DG-85. My Be Quiet! Pure Wings 2 fans' screws are too thick and won't fit in the rear (or "left") screw holes. Does anyone know which screws I should get? The once provided are not quite long enough to penetrate my fan and the case's screw holes.
 
Thank you in advance

What would be the best watercooling setup for this case?
Is it worth bothering with push/pull if I go for dual 420 radiators?
I'm going to start with CPU, GPU, and Motherboard, with a second GPU down the line.
 
I'm also wondering if I should grab one of those EK 150mm res/pump combos,
or if I should sacrifice a HDD cage for a separate more fancy PWM pump.
Pressure is another thing I might have to watch for with such a large loop?

The EK pump combo's use the exact same pumps as the stand alone the difference is the pump top allows the reservoirs can be mounted as 1 unit it's all about your preference

I thought the combo ones were volt controlled, and the separate ones had the option for PWM?
Granted, I dont think having a pump on vario-speed is useful, but I thought there were other merits to it as well.
If the top is really all there is to it, I might as well just get the combo, provided the mount can facilitate.
It was designed with EK in mind, right?

Look at EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM (incl. pump) from EK it's every thing you need as far as pump/reservoirs

Right, but look at the mount plate, I dont think the reservoir bracket accommodates for this?
Or can you just leave that EK bracket off, mount it to the case by the reservoir and leave the pump dangling underneath?

I wont Lie I personally think there is definitely going to be issues with mounting. I have an EK 250 reservoir and i bought the pump/top combo separately ( https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-xtop-revo-d5-pwm-incl-pump) which a different pump top and it took me a while to figure out how i was going to do this without drilling any holes in my brand new DG 87 LOL
 
So what i came up with was using one of the HD cages to mount the pump in there (which was EVGA's plan for us to be able to do because the HD sliding mounts have holes marked as pump) but unfortunately they don't line up with that bracket and even if i drill holes that do fit, the pump is too big with a fitting to make it work so i will be cutting a large square piece from the top of the cage for clearance to mount the fitting and cutting out one of the side rails for the intake to feed in. Its quite a bit of modding i wasn't planning on but this way there wont be any voiding of warranty since no modding has been done to the actual case itself.
 
I will definitely be looking forward to seeing other peoples custom loops to see what they did. I plan to take pics as i progress in my build and but the cost is ramping up and up so only able to purchase a few components at a time (otherwise wife will catch on to what i'm doing muhahaha)

If you are only cooling a single gpu, mobo, and cpu a single 45mm thick 420mm long radiator is plenty. When adding the second gpu you may find you're pushing the limits of single 420mm radiator, if you are heavily overvlocked. if cooling isn't adequate I would probably add another 120mm to 280mm radiator to the loop at that point. As for push pull config the only time those are useful is when you under sized your radiator and the only way to cool it is with stupid levels of air flow.

My order is currently on:

Order Status: Pending Verification

And when I go into my order ID:

Order Status: Awaiting Approval

Is this anything to worry about?

I have same status so should be ok :)
