Hello! First post here.  I want your guys' opinion on which case is the best for watercooling. These choices are racking my brain. If you have a different choice of a good water cooling case less than 250$, plz recommend me some. I am looking to watercool my i7 4770k and maybe my 2 780ti's. Also, I will have a 360mm rad. 

 

P.S I really like this idea that I found on google images. This is a picture of a plan of another person who has the exact configuration of mine, but with a 750d. I might not go with this picture idea, but I would like to give you guys a rought picture of what my build wants to look like.(Take out the 280mm rad and the watercooling gpu in the pic).

 

Thank you!

Pretty sure the Enthoo Primo is also under $250, they're (I think) superior to both of these cases. But if it were between these two I would choose the 750D

Enthoo Luxe, are you kidding?  Better build quality, more features, better customer support, more water cooling friendly.

 

Enthoo Luxe all the way.

I think objectively the enthoo luxe has better water cooling support

Both cases pretty much have the same radiator support except:

The enthoo luxe has the ability to mount a 420 radiator on the roof, while the 750d only supports a 360 (which the luxe does as well)

The rear fan of the enthoo luxe has height adjust, allowing it to accommodate thicker roof radiators, and I believe there is clearance between the top dust filter and frame to install fans on top for push-pull if desired.

This in conjunction with the reservoir bracket (ur res can still be installed in front of the pice lanes if gpu length is an issue), and the rubberised pump bracket make the luxe more water cooling friendly.
