Jag får nog inte plats med all i ett itx, behöver några HDD med mycket minne för allt footage jag filmar. Måtten för umx3 är rätt perfekta för min väska.
A 240mm AIO ("All In One" liquid cooling unit) would not be easy to adapt into the UMX3. A twin 120mm radiator custom loop perhaps, but you need to know a water-cooling junkie to do it for you. If you are set on the UMX3, a 120mm AIO is practical or a large air cooler, which could actually cater for a more powerful CPU than the 120mm AIO. You should then choose a CPU that doesn't need bigger cooling than that. That kind of rules out the 3950X unless you use lower settings. A 120mm AIO might be somewhat undersized for also a 3900X on intensive all-core workloads, even without overclocking.
Perhaps with modifications you could install a 240mm AIO's radiator at the bottom of the UMX3. That is the default spot for the 3.5" hard disk though. You would also have to re-design the air flow scheme of the case.
Otherwise there are other good cases already catering for a 240mm AIO or readily adapted. That includes some cases built for a mini-ITX motherboard. There are such cases also catering for at least a 3.5" hard drive and a 2.5" SSD.
If you haven't looked already, the Lian Li TU-150 is arguably a better designed similar sized competitor to the UMX3 (although without the micro-ATX option) and is about half the price of it. It is new and is listed as incoming stock at some typical stores here. I am not saying that can fit a 240mm AIO any easier by the way.
Are you planning to add more than one 3.5" hard disk? Obviously multiple hard disks can get heavy, bearing in mind that the rest of the system is not very light. I guess it depends on how feasible it is to manage storage to/from bigger external sources.
How much does RAM matter for your application. A mini-ITX can easily have 32GB RAM or a less economical 64GB in it's two slots. A micro-ATX has four slots and can therefore have double.
