I'm looking for a new case that would house a 360mm radiator comfortably without modding also would like to it to have a nice side panel preferably window. Not keen on the haf x cases.
I was hoping that I might get some suggestions from you guys. Didn't know wether to post this in "liquid cooling" or here.

If i was you i would wait for the coolermaster cosmos 2 to be released in early feb, it houses a 360 in the roof and up to 2 240s in the bottom, TTL has a vid on youtube about it.....its pretty epic imo.

but its an extremely expensive case (if that matters) plus it only supports a thin 360 in the roof. and the dual 240 in the bottom with some fancy plumbing skills.
I know ya said your not a fan of the Haf series but I did alot of research on this and for a thick 360 rad in roof at a reasonable price the 932 is the best option. best thing I can suggest is look at cases that have tall roofs and then see if you can find vids on them to get a real look inside and try and judge if there is room My 932 has a 60mm thick rad with 25mm thick fans on it and i still have about 30mm of room before the mobo becomes an issue. There are plenty of options out there it just takes time and patients to find the one that suits ur taste and needs

Thanks guys For the replies. I like the look of the corsair obsidian 800D and the cosmos 2 but they are both a bit pricey. I don't mind the 932 plus the price is reasonable. I haven't found a 932 for sale with a nice side panel I was hoping for a window.

NZXT Switch 810. I believe that's what it is called. It's being release in the beginning of February I believe, or maybe next week. It's being released soon. It fits a thick 360mm rad in the roof no problem and it can do it with a push pull configuration. You should look in the news section of this forum and check it out. It's definitely worth having a look at.

What this guy says, it could be worth the wait.
