i was looking at getting the Silverstone tj07 but has become unavailable for me to get so i am looking for a new case

 

it has to be water cooling friendly as i would like atleast a 360 AND a 240mm rad without taking out the hdd bays as i need the storage with my system as i need a lot of TB for my build and also an optical drive as i burn alot of dvds

 

i would like it no bigger the 560mm high (22 inches) 

 

i would prefer it to be cheaper then the tj07 but if it is the same price as it then so be it

Corsair air 540, it may look small but it can hold a 360on the front and a 240/280 on the top. Amazing, isn't it?! Altough,it has 2 HDDs hot swaps and 4 SSDs brackets, but you may be able to use one of the 2x5.5" bay as a 3.5" for 1 more drive. How many HDD brackets do you need?

Take a look at this one,I don't know about availability on your country but it may help you:

RV03 It has room for a 2x180mm/3x120mm on the bottom and a 240mm on the front and it  leaves room for 6 HDDs(i hope it is plenty), look at the 3rd image and you will understand how it works(it explains it also in the specification section where it says 4x120mm on front with a *, which then explains on the bottom of the page.)

Hope it helped!

i have had a look at both of those cases but i kind of like the air 540 but it is way too wide and i was after a normal width case not 400mm wide and with the rv03 it isnt really built for wc as i checked out TTL video review on it

 

i need 1x2.5" and 3x3.5" and atleast 1x5.25"

Fractal Design Arc Xl

Fractal Design Define XL R2

 

out of these 2 cases only arc xl is the only one that takes a 360 rad and it has to be a slim where i would prefer a 60mm thick rads
