Definitely YES!

Still have enough clearance from the side panel


It's cool to see someone has the guts to mod this casing. It's already beautiful without any modification.

My 3D Aurora570 kept well in the box at home in Kuching. Very underutilized but 'sayang' to sell it cheap. One day would be used for home workstation.

I remembered in this case I can fit Tr IFX-14 with HR01 backplate. it looks awesome with big cooler like yours too.

This photo is a mirror reflection.

Before I installed IFX14, I've tried it with Coolit Eliminator and it looks more awesome with the Coolit logo light.
