The Perfect Case

Ok I have searched far and low for a case like this and it may not exist without me having to pay $400 but maybe one of you knows of some secret case that I don't so here goes. I'm looking for a case that will fit a 360 mm and 240 mm rad. It needs to fit an atx board and also look classy, like a corsair obsidian series (note that I don't want a corsair obsidian series, I just want it to look nice). It also needs to have a window that is NOT obstructed by any fan mounts or fan holes and it also needs to be made out of metal. If anyone can find me a case like this that won't cost like over $250 then I would praise them forever. Thanks  :)

If you want quality, it's going to come with a premium unfortunately. I love my NZXT Phantom personally. Why no 900D?

I think the 900D looks stupid with an atx in it because it just looks way to small.

You can mod a 600t to hold a 360 at the top and mod the front to fit a 240. That's all I can think of

Corsair 600T White | Gigabyte Z77-UD3H | Intel Core i5-2500k | 8GB Gskill Ares@1600MHz | Gigabyte G1 GTX970 | OCZ ZT 550 | Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB | Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB | Samsung 840 EVO 250GB (boot) | Full Custom Loop | NZXT HUE

Yeah, otherwise i guess the switch 810 is only other way to go.

I got the Fractal Design Define R4 Arctic White W/ Window - long name but the build quality is as extensive as the length of the name. :P

 

Now if I could ever bring myself to spend $500 on a case....I drop money on this: http://www.frozencpu.com/products/18258/cst-1363/LD_Cooling_Little_Devil_PC-V8_ATXHTPX_Mid-Tower_Case_-_Black.html?tl=c7s12b194
