Suggest a full tower case with space for (see inside)

[evilmunky]

I have a build thread here : http://forum.overclock3d.net/showthread.php?p=574810#post574810 and have been semi convinced that my case of choice will be tooooooo big (xigmatek Elysium). With that in mind I need a different case.

I am looking for something up to £150 to fit in with the rest of my build.

Requirements would be:

• Must have side window
• Must have space for up to 7 or 8 HDD's
• Must easily fit a h100i watercooling loop
• should have cable managemant through the back (ie gromits in the tray to hide cables)
• Will be potentially running XFIre in the future and possibly more watercooling
• PSU at the bottom

What can you suggest?

I will be moving from a Thermaltake Armor - from about 4 years ago.

8 hdd´s or ssd´s aswell?

CM Storm Stryker / Trooper would fit the bill & could hold all that. With the Trooper you have to pay extra for a side panel window.

There will be 5 or 6 normal hdd's and 2 ssd's

NZXT Switch 810 oodles of room

Aerocool xpredator, but it can't fit a H100i but has 4 grommits for custom watercooling

If you don't mind plastic, the NZXT Switch 810 would be your best option tbh.

Shinobi XL can do all you require.

8 hard drives..... REALLY? Why not build a cheap home server and get all of that mess out of your rig.

If you want more watercooling later that means ditching the H100 btw


but Storm Trooper/Stryker - NZXT Switch 810 would be where Id spent my money

How about if I am talking about swapping out the H100i for a EK-KIT H3O 360 HFX High Performance Watercooling Kit with a view to adding another rad in later when I cool the gpu block. Still enough space?
on the switch 810?

There is more than enough room and more to spare in the Switch.
