Case to replace Enthoo Primo

Ryoku

So I know someone looking to replace his Enthoo Primo, and is looking for suggestions on what to get, these are his requirements.

  • e-atx board a 420mm and 280mm rads both 60mm thick.  He's looking for no to very minimal modding to fit the rads, Want to keep it under $300 CAD.

Case is going to be for water cooling obviously, so anyone have any suggestions?

First why is he getting rid of the primo when it is a fantastic water-cooling case.  

 

There is always the corsair 900D which is a monster, slightly(a lot) smaller corsair is the 750D.

Slightly smaller Primo is the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe.

NZXT has the phantom 630 and 820 which both have room for a custom loop.

He broke something In/On it. Also hates the door on the case.

 

Unfortunately the Phantoms don't have the rad support.

Slient base 800?

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but doesn't seem like it will fit a 420mm rad

I've always been a fan of the be quiet silent base 800 because of the performance, noise and beautiful looks, it has space for a dual rad at the top and fits eAtx motherboards i think.

The entire case is lined with a noise dampening material and features 3 be quiet silentwings III fans. I have it running in my desk now and i can happily leave it on overnight (My pc is in my bedroom) without it waking me up. 
Hope this helped :) 
(Update: I didnt read the forum beforehand and are looking for cases now ;) )

Why Is it windows 10 not 9?

because 7 ate 9 
(say it)
