Hello everyone i'm looking for a new case. It needs to fit lots of stuff in it though. I'm kinda at the point where its go to big, or sacrifice my hardware. My optimal case is; a case with 6x 5.25 external bays, 8x 3.5 Internal bays which 2x are 2.5 for SSD's, ATX board, 1x 240mm RAD, 1x 280mm RAD, small pump, 780ti watercooled, silverstone 1000w PSU and a watercooled CPU. Big i know. I'm thinking the Corsair 750d, except it only has 3x 5.25 bays. I cant get the 800d on the site i use so the next is the 900d by corsair. OVER kill for what i need. Ill put links to both and my wishlist's for my current build and the upgrades i want. Please try and use the site pccasegear.com becasue im an aussie :) thanks you!

 

Edit: If i'm going to have all this cool nighting and water cooling i want to see it. So as big of a window as possible! :D Blue and black is the theme.

i would get a haf stacker, there are pretty usefull, if not buy the 900d then you have room to upgrade:D

bigger cases are better than smaller cases for your needs anyway :D

Sorry about the fans brown, i updated it was x2 120mm not 40mm. And I can't find the T81 and i kinda wanna buy all my parts in one place, that way i get them all at the same time. Especially if its the main peace. And Jame the HAF look good but i need a case that has the 5.25 in a row, if you get what i mean?

The phanteks enthoo pro is bloody awesome but its coming out next month so you would have to wait, i recommend the nzxt phantom series, it basically down to which phantom you like the most, they have varying designs,

Not big on that case sorry :/ just doesn't appeal to me. I know its an idea and it looks really good. I had a look at it before this forum. But i like how simple the obsidian series looks. 

 

define r4?

 

Pardon??

I've been looking at the 810. It looks like a decent case. The widows are the only thing, because I want a plan window no fan grills.  NZXT's h440 look great! But they have no 5.25 bays :(

So im going to go with the 900D, for only $200 more than the 750D, i get so much more watercooling, drives. And i get to have a lot more room for activities ;) Thanks for all your thoughts, if you think the 900D is a waste i would definitely love to her why :)

Although the 900d looks great, adding 5.25' drive will ruin the look.

Ok so now I've got new ideas, the phantom 630? Thoughts? It will have blue LEDs. Personally I like the grayish one but someone with blue LEDs? Maybe sign a light (hehe ;))
