Hmm, Evo XL says it only supports 280mm radiators (at least from a glance), it also looks mostly identical to the O11D. Unless it's bigger. What size radiator do you use, it looked like a 360mm on the backside of your case?

 

If you want a pretty nice case, that also has a cube option, check out anidees! We have two cases from them and they've been great. Airflow is not the best but mine basically has two filters in the front (thin vents on the side of the front glass, a removable 360 dust filter held on magnetically inside, with 3x 120mm fans behind it mounted inside the case). Their fans are nice too and seemingly dust proof. Come January I will have had this case for 5 years, and it stays really clean inside for the most part. I dust it every month or two and it stays really clean.

 

Take a look at their different cases.

 

The only problem with them is that they don't have much US availability, they used to have a limited selection on Amazon, but had everything on Newegg. Now on Newegg I only see one case and its a full tower. I even tried caseking.de and AliExpress, no go. Tbh I don't know where you can get their products anymore, but if you can find them they are worth it.

Evo XL supports up to 3 radiators. Not sure what case you looked at.

Oh okay gotcha. The one I looked at was just called Dynamic Evo XL. I didn't realize it was a different version of the O11D.

 

Did you take a look at the anidees link?

Yeah, those do not have the watercooling support I am looking for at all and I have to question some of these case designs considerably. I mean where are those bottom fans even getting air from lol.

It just downloads fresh air through the invisible side vents.

Monthly cleaning of Ai Crystal and took a lot of photos. Thought I would share.

The whole setup looks awesome and incredibly clean! I'm over here with mismatched monitors on an Ikea tabletop ha.
