Where are you shopping/located? Budget?

What are you planning to put inside of the case?

I'm a huge fan of the Define S personally... the 460x and 400c are a bit too small imho for watercooling since corsair decided to be stupid and not support top mounted radiators.

 

I and numerous others have done a float glass window replacement which looks really great and adds a nice premium feel.

You don't necessarily need a full tower. Are you going for a full custom water loop or just an all-in-one CPU cooler?

no, mid towers and mITX can do custom loops quite well.

kinda depends on your abilities to 'make things work'.

first water cooling build, yes the larger chassis can aid in complex issues that smaller chassis can present.

Depends on the rest of your hardware, rads,res,pump,tubing. It's probably easier to fit everything in a nice full tower, but it looks better fill out the case.

 

Theres some good custom builds in the define r5 and oither mid towers on yb. Probably check them out to give yourself an idea.

Silent build - You know your pc is too loud when the deaf complain. Windows 98 gaming build, smells like beige

get the full tower case. 

Since you'll be doing water cooling you'll have more space to work with. also it'll look great.

You also could do mid tower and mITX as well. But for the mITX you'll have less room to work with.

They have cases built for water cooling in any sizes

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Depends on how much you want to put in. For example I could not get 4 radiators, a separate pump and reservoir, as well as my HDD and SSDs into my Dark Base 900.
