I'm thinking of getting a 3rd 1080TI Hybrid, do you guys think I will have any problems mounting three of them?
Not sure if I would be safe mounting on the front and bringing hot air in, or trying to squeeze it up top with the h100i cpu rad.

Finally I moved my parts from old case (CoolerMaster HAF 932 AMD Edition) to DG87 :)  but this case have a little bug. If you installing radiator on top directly on case and have stop fittings (on top side) on radiator so between radiator and case is space 1-2mm because stop fittings aren't in same line like radiator (AlphaCool radiators).

I thi ClaytonGaudry
What do you guys think about the evga cases? are they okay?
I think are cool but on front case side DG Series we need more space if installing 29mm fans from front side (no inside) because you then can't put back that fan filter (tested with 29mm NoiseBlocker fans). Top case side (from inside) don't have solved problem with raditaors which have stop fittings on all sides (top, bottom and on the side). Problematic is TOP if installing rad directly on case. TOP fan(s) can by connected only one case fan connector but you can no't regulate speed this fan(s). Can spin only on max speed. Cables for FRONT AUDIO and FRONT PANEL are short if you want pull cables back side. Software can regulate only manual and percentages values (not showing rpm speed). Any auto profiles or something. Edit: I forgot on software option for turn off white lighting.

Great case for watercooling no doubt, dual 420/360mm radiator. Look amazing even with single card inside and watercooling loop.

Heres some pics and stats of my rig: Please vote for me or comment if you like it or have any questions. FYI, the Red Reservoir is a UV-C sterlizer which keeps my loop completely steril...take that kill coils.

It would be interesting to see how the 84's door hinges are made. The acrylic hinges are a little weak. Nice upgrade job though. Did you have to cut extra metal off of the frame to make the window size larger?

It looks about normal sized. If he did cut off extra metal it wouldn't be a lot.

That looks awesome. Where did you get the glass? I may change mine to that way. I'm sure the hinges are much sturdier with the steel instead of acrylic/

This piece came from a local glass shop, most places have glass shops hidden around, and there are plenty of online options for custom glass too. Don't feel to pressured to insist on tempered, I feel that's mostly a shipping and liability issue for companies. The hinges are just modified general purpose hinges, The original acrylic ones seem to be plenty strong for whatever you want, though, and I would have probably just 3d printed an ABS replica had I owned a printer. Finally the latch just started as a piece of 1/4" aluminum 'C'-channel. I made a 'door' from foam-core, for prototyping, then used said door to make an inverse jig with the hinges/ latch on it, prepped and masked the glass, applied [3M Windo-Weld], spread it nicely, then applied the jig. After the adhesive was somewhat rubbery, i cut the jig down so I could remove the masking for clean lines. The next day was cleanup and using a syringe/needle to inject paint into a couple visible air pockets.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any extra drive bays from a DG-86? I bought the DG-85 and have only 4 HD slots. I called EVGA, but no luck. Any help is much appreciated.

You should post more pictures, from this one your computer look very interesting. No better PC case for people who want to build system with SSI-EEB motherboards for home. Or retro build with EVGA SR-2 and SR-X Classified. GIGABYTE C621 Aourus, ASUS Dominus, SR-2, EVGA SR-3 Dark... I can't understand if someone buy EVGA SR-3 Dark to look for something else. DG-87 is natural, even if need some modifications. This is nicest motherboard on planet and DG-87 expose her perfectly. This is to much beauty for one motherboard and make to feel bad... If you have this motherboard, then you can install CPU of i3, DDR2, PCI-E 2.0 performance.  From other side I could imagine EVGA DG-87 half size from aluminum. Sick. Size for Mini ITX Board. Absolutely same only small, Mini ITX board and option for 240mm radiators on top and bootom.
