Celsius and Celsius+ Compatibility Chart with Discontinued Fractal Design Cases

This chart lists where the Celsius S24 , S28 and S36 can be mounted in each of our cases, and lists what kind of restrictions there are if any. 


 If there is a blank space that means there is no compatibility for that cooler in that case.
