I did have one issue during build. The case doesn't have a whole lot of clearance at the top for the radiator and fans. The left fan ended up hitting the motherboard. I removed the armoring on the board, and it still hit the heatsink. So I had to get a little crafty.

Once the board was fully screwed in it also lowered it a little so fan blade doesn't touch it at all.

Rog I don't know much about that case, but if it's a Mid ATX and has an attic for the radiator, you're going to have some fun with a H115i.
I know that struggle. I'd probably go with a 100i or 110i in the future (or if I had to do it all again).

This is the end result. Only thing that's probably going to change in the near future is adding 2x more 2TB 7200 HDDs for media and shit, might get another M2 960 and then when the 1080TI comes out, that's on my list.
