I'm looking to build a watercooled computer and am wondering what cases are available that can hold one 240mm and one 360mm rad (I should mention 280 and 420 is okay too). I plan to slightly modify the case (paint and maybe some other things).

If you guys have suggestions, I would appreciate the cases name and rad possibilities. Also I plan to have 1 mechanical HDD, but i'm pretty sure I could mount it in an optical bay if need be

I was going to go with a Switch 810, but I am honestly seeing it all the time online and curious of the other possibilities.

Thanks in advance

Well 900D comes in mind but i dont know your size preference, cause size does matter (lol) and also your budget 

900D fits everything, even 2x480mm and maybe 1 or 2 240mm 

Hey there. You are looking mighty fine today, have my virtual cookie!  :ph34r:

Silverstone TJ11

Corsair 800/900D

NZXT Switch 810

 

Just a few off the top of my head.

I was kind of hoping for just under $200 but up to $250 would probably be top.

I've considered the Obsidian series but I am just not sure about it, I forgot to mention, windowed is necessary, but i am not worried too much as I suppose I could just cut out a Windows and glue/screw one on.

I don't really want to waste space so 900D or caselabs seems a little overboard.

I like what TTL did to the storm striker, but i don't want to loose the functionality of the case if I do mod it. Cutting a few things that aren't necessary would be alright.

I'm alright with getting a switch, I just thought I'd check to see the other options out there.

Edit: After checking out the Silverstone cases, I don't really find them attractive.

I would recommend the Switch 810 because its a great case for watercooling and this would be the best case to fit your 2 radiators imo.
