RackChoice 5U rackmount Server Chassis Silver Color Support Liquid Cooling Compatibility up to Elevated 360mm Radiator, 1xPS2+1xSFX PSU

I bought the RackChoice 5U rackmount server chassis so I could rack mount my gaming PC. I use a Noctua NHD-15 for my CPU cooler so I needed a pretty decent amount of height and there doesn't seem to be a lot of options for that. This chassis has plenty of room for the NHD-15 and my GPU with decent room to spare. There's a built-in fan controller that has a display on the front of the case and supports two 3-pin fans but 4-pin connectors will fit just fine.I removed the two 120mm fans it came with and replaced them with three Noctua 120mm fans (NF-A12x25). Two of the fans are plugged into the built-in fan controller, because it seemed like a waste to not use it, and the third fan is controlled by the motherboard. I also installed a Noctua 140mm fan (NF-A14) at the rear above the motherboard IO panel which is also controlled by the motherboard. This position supports 120mm or 140mm fans while there is space for two 80mm fans over the PCIe slots. You could certainly hear the stock fans but they weren't terrible and the airflow they produced seemed decent. With the Noctua fans, it's whisper quiet and the airflow is amazing.I have a fairly long modular PSU at 200mm (EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 P2) so I needed to move the SFX PSU bracket forward in the case to give room for the cables. The SFX PSU bracket also doubles as the 3.5" HDD mount if you're not putting a PSU in it so that is where my two HDDs are currently mounted. Both cross members in the case can be moved around quite a bit which is extremely appreciated when trying to fit everything just right.This case is incredibly heavy when you're trying to finagle it into place in the rack so I highly recommend you have a 4-post shelf or 4-post shelf rails underneath it if you're not using sliding rails. It will make your life a whole lot easier.Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase!

Had tons of space for a liquid cooled setup, large power supply, and compatible with many accessories. Looks great, solid construction, really happy with this purchase.

I racked up my new gaming PC in this chassis and it's a dream.Fans:There's like 11 places you can mount fans in this chassis.Starting from the front, you can mount 3x 120mm fans behind the front filter media.Just behind that there is a mount for you to put up to a 360mm rad with 3x 120mm fans.On the left of the chassis you can mount 2x 120 mm fans (Would def recommend slim fans over standard ones).In the back you can fit 1 120 or 140 mm fan and two 80 mm fans.Fully kitted, that's 11 fans, which is a lot of possible airflow for cooling.Motherboard support:This chassis can support all standard motherboard form factors with ease, fitting everything from a dual socket SSI EEB to mini ITX and DTX motherboards.By default it also comes with more than enough standoffs to rearrange to fit all supported motherboard form factors.Drive support/AUX PSU:This chassis comes with a special drive cage that can fit either 2x 3.5inch drives or 1x SFX PSU for a redundant or Auxiliary PSU setup. When using a secondary PSU, there is a removable NEMA C13 to C14 extension cable that is used to bring the wall current to the secondary PSU. If you are not using the cage to provide a secondary PSU, you can remove the extension. Be advised though that there is not an included plug for the hole it leaves if you elect to remove the cable.The chassis also has 2 dedicated 2.5 inch drive traces that can fit one drive each. By default, this chassis can only support up to four drives. With an adapter, you can fit more drives into the cage, which is what I ended up doing.Build quality:That build quality is solid, and the chassis is steady. It doesn't feel like it'll flex or bow at all.Mounting System:The default mounting system is kinda bad. Being a rack mount chassis, it features 3 mounting holes on each wing. It does not come with any mounting hardware and the rails cost extra to purchase and install. I chose to get a secondary accessory to mount a shelf in my rack to set the chassis on for ease of installation and removal when needs of maintenance arise.The fan controller/Stat Screen:The fan controller and stat screen are powered by molex from the power supply, and it tracks the system's uptime and has an internal temperature reading displayed on it. It can also support up to two fans running off of it. Due to piece location and space constraints, the fans can only be 3 pin (non-pwm) fans.TL;DR:PROS:+ Compatible with nearly all standard motherboard form factors+ 11 possible fan mounting positions+ Sturdy and Steadfast+ Support for a variety of builds including water cooling or ultra high airflow.+ Standardized rack mount sizing for tidy and rack-able builds.+ Front USB ports can be either USB 2.0 or 3.0 from only one cable.CONS:- No included mounting hardware (for 300+ american dollars I would expect more out of this)- No measurements for PSU support listed on page. My 1200 Watt Super Flower PSU just barely fits with cables installed and the drive cage in the second position.- Frontmost fan mounts cannot support a 360mm liquid cooler as they are not inline.- No included way of plugging the hole left when removing the included C13 to C14 extension cable.- Power Button can sometimes stick when getting pressed.Changes I would make?I would add ventilation cutouts for the power supply so that it could be supplied with cooler air from the outside of the chassis.Beef up the fan controller to allow for PWM fan support.Include the most basic rack mounting hardware like cage nuts and screws (or maybe a promotional discount for the matching rails when purchasing this chassis in the same transaction)Bottom line:I would recommend this product, but I've really gotta put an asterisk here because some of the minor complaints I have with it are hard limits for other people who would be considering this product for whatever reason.Solid for gamers and prosumers, potentially less so for professionals.

I bought this to convert my systems to server rack shapes. Easy to build in and great feeling quality. Sadly the front panel lcd screen only supports 2 fans but nothing a multi fan cable can't fix.

The product clearly states only one 360mm radiator can be mounted in the front. I took that as a challenge. Not only can it fit a thick 360mm rad in the front, but also a thick 240mm rad on the side, and a normal 120mm rad in the back for exhaust, all with a push/pull fan configuration. I was also able to mount one 80mm fan for exhaust in the back. Unable to fit two due to the graphics card clearance being too tight to fit a normal size 80mm fan. Could probably fit a slim 80mm fan behind the gpu.Very sturdy overall. Had to drill holes to mount the pump, but that was to be expected.If I were to build in this case again, I would use an itx board. The thick 240mm rad on the side made it difficult to plug in any USB 2.0 header, as well as the front panel power and led connections. I would also not use a corsair shift power supply due to the cables coming out of the top instead of the back of the psu. It would be better for cable management as well as there is a small clearance between the case and the psu fan for the shift model. During stress tests, I had no issues with overheating the psu.Had to replace the power switch with a $10 aftermarket part due to the stock power switch being extremely sticky unless you pressed it in the exact right spot.With 13 total fans in this case, it is loud. These are corsair rx static pressure fans. If icue link wasn't such an easy cable management situation, I would recommend using noctua fans if you care about noise levels.Overall, very pleased with the case and have already recommended it to friends.
