It’s been along time since a Monster tower owned the spotlight. You can’t escape seeing Corsair’s 800D case featured in magazine ads for Gaming PC boutiques. In only 6 months, the case has become one of the most sought after full tower cases in the market. Hardware reviewers praised the 800D for it’s spacious interior and built in features. Corsair invested a lot of time into R&D, and it shows. The research involved watching and listening to the community. “Why don’t manufacturers pre-fit cases for radiators?” Corsair was lurking and taking notes. The 800D fits a 360 size radiator without any modification. This was a nice gesture, but there will always be people who want to squeeze more performance out of this chassis. This illustrated guide shows you how to modify the 800D to fit a 420 size radiator.
