    Corsair makes a fine case. I use the 780T myself.

    If you have the space and willing to spend a little more... the 900D would fit.  Slot thumb screws are slightly obstructed by case rear/side lip, but I managed with a small stubby screwdriver.  Top fits 3x140mm.  I use a EK 360 radiator on top, made a custom bracket to mount the Ti hybrid radiators together, then held in place using hd insulation foam with a friction fit.  All 15x120mm fans are intake except for the rear 1x140mm case fan set for exhaust.  A lot of room for growth and large open area for air flow.  Outgrew my 800D so this case should hold me over another 4-5 years.

    ^^^Thats what I use with four intakes blowing at the gpu that puppy is one cool customer.
    I put the Lian li PC-888 into retirement. Wire management in the thing is a real pain.
    I'll save the case for the next build:/

    I placed an order for the primochill praxis, its a open bench.

    Off topic,
    Can I ask why you went SLI?
    From my understanding games developers and Nvidia will and are dropping support.

    Lol, went SLI as well. Worse case, I'll just upgrade a family member if SLI is not supported for this year's main AAA titles.

    Coolermaster Mastercase 5. It's a huge case, but has almost limitless expand ability and all sorts of awesome features.

    loving the Thermaltake Core P5 but my case is not a showpiece so i don't need the bling factor.

    If you have the space and willing to spend a little more... the 900D would fit.  Slot thumb screws are slightly obstructed by case rear/side lip, but I managed with a small stubby screwdriver.  Top fits 3x140mm.  I use a EK 360 radiator on top, made a custom bracket to mount the Ti hybrid radiators together, then held in place using hd insulation foam with a friction fit.  All 15x120mm fans are intake except for the rear 1x140mm case fan set for exhaust.  A lot of room for growth and large open area for air flow.  Outgrew my 800D so this case should hold me over another 4-5 years.
     



    Your build is freakin awesome. Im almost ready to build my 900d. Im also planning on using same gpus you have. Im thinking about mounting corsairs new 360mm h150 pro rad up top and front and then a gpu rad at the top back of the case then second bottom gpu rad exhaust in push pull at the 140mm fan at the back with an adapter for 120mm fans. Do you think that would work?

    Thanks.  I'm trying to keep on a 4-5 year refresh on systems, but these new stupid computer parts keep coming out.  If you haven't gotten the 900D, be 100% sure because it's nice, but not perfect.  A lot of combos would work in this case, how well, I don't know.  You may want to verify clearance with the 120mm hybrid and the 3x120mm H150i up top.  They have the end caps and fittings on either end that extend past the fans/fins.  The 4 120mm opening are back-to-back so I'm guessing the rads will interfere with each other.
     
    I didn't want to mount a hybrid rad on the rear like you suggested since it'll take ambient air from case in exhaust setup or interfere with case rear exhaust airflow if the push/pull fans were setup for cold air intake.  Also, tall memory sticks may interfere, too.  I preferred having the front case fans blowing cool air into both hybrids directly.  The case is so long, the hybrid AIO hoses are too short to mount the rads directly on the front fans.  I'm using aluminum angle bars, 1/2" or 5/8" as frames, mounted the rads to it in a stacked fashion and using HD insulation foam on the top and bottem to hold the rads in place.  It was a nice snug fit.
     
    Goal was to have all rads have cold air intake from top and front.  Bottom fans would provide air flow upwards, thus the positive pressure would push air out the back perforations and 140mm rear fans helps, too.  Airflow from all three sides pushing out the rear.  I used black foam core board with some clear tape and sealed all the opening on the front filter air plenum area.  This helped pressurize the case and prevent air leakage through all the openings.  If you have the 900D and take off the front panel and filter, you'll see the gaps between the fans.  Did the same for the top of the case.
     
    Since the top grill collects a lot of dust when using as intake, I purchased the DEMCiflex Dust Filter Kit for Corsair Obsidian 900D.  I only used the top filter screen as a pre-filter to help keep dust under control.  As I said, not a perfect case, but large enough for my current and future needs and easy to swap stuff in/out.  The AIO hoses will be difficult to lengthen and purge air if modified.  Also, warranty voided.  I'd look at the Alphacool 360 as an alternative to the H150i.  Corsair was using Asetek OEM with cosmetic differences and Corsair fans.  Guessing the H150i is an Asetek, too.  I liked their turn-key Vaporchill phase change.  Too bad it was not profitable.

    Does anyone have a single 1080ti or dual 1080ti in a corsair 780t case? Curious to know if its air cooling performance will be sufficient for a dual 1080ti setup.

    Can't decide if I should go with 780t, 900d, or a coolermaster c700p case for an x299 build with dual 1080ti cards. The 780t is what I'm leaning towards due to it price and high cooling performance but not aure. I wish there were newer better full tower cases available.
