In the past we had the oppurtunity to review one of Gigabyte's flag-ship enclosures, their model 3D Aurora, this all aluminum beauty had everything you would need to start your water cooling system except for the water cooling components. This is where you might say big deal most cases can be converted to water cooling. The thing about the 3D Aurora is that it has the holes drilled in the rear of the case for the tubing to run in and out if you chose to use an external radiator. Perhaps the best description would be for you just to read the review we did on the case which can be found here( http://hi-techreviews.com/reviews_2007/3DAurora570/Index.htm ).
That brings us to the case we are reviewing today, the Gigabyte 3D Mercury, where the 3D Aurora was the case preparing you for a water cooling experience the 3D Mercury will put you smack dab in the middle of your water cooling project. We start with a 100% aluminum case and then inside of it they include all of the neccessary tubing, pump, water blockand res to to have a perfectly work water cooling system. It is the whole enchilada.
