modding case for water cooling

Hi

So i have a HAF 932 case but i have recently went SLI with 2X 780s and now im having heat issues!

The cpu i7 4790k @ 4.7 has a H100i for cooling' about 55c - 60c under ful load but the top gpu gets to 80c really quick.

I know its pulLing in hot air from the bottom card, but i cant move the bottom card into the 3rd slot as the psu is there and i cant move the psu to the top of the case because of the rad for the cpu.

I was looking at a custom water loop but not enough room for 2x 240 rads.

I also looked at the kraken g10 i think but same problam, no room for rads

I really like the case and dont want to change it, and ideas for modding it for more rads or any other ideas?

Bit long winded but thanks

suggestion:
take properly focused pictures with actual lighting so people can actually see where things are in the case :P

MUCH better lol

Hmm that case+mobo kinda fucks you in the mouth..aside from getting a thinner/slim PSU the only thing I can think to do is go to a custom water loop for your whole system and get a couple blocks for the cards. Mighty expensive but thats my .2cents
