Tempered Glass Mini ITX Cases?

[SuperShires]

Hey people, I'm planning on doing a custom water loop build sometime this year and I'm on looking for a suitable case for the build. Now I want a really high quality case as this will be my end-all chassis.

 

I've been looking at the CaseLabs Nova X2M but as I live in the UK the options for the EU side of things isn't great (I can only get it in black with certain configs)

 

Now this case ticks most boxes:

- fits 2X 240mm Rads

- looks great (minimalist look is a must)

- exceptional build quality

- pretty compact and can still fit 2X 240mm Rads

 

Only downsides are:

- very costly (looking at close to £300!)

- I'd love a tempered glass side panel

- cant tell if I can fit my 2X 3.5" HDD's (anyone verify I could?)

- no PSU cover (not too much of a problem)

 

So I'm wondering if anyone knows any great cases that fit my needs? Thanks

You may be capable of fitting 2*240mm in one of these if you use an ITX mobo, that my plan.

Quite a nice looking case but I don't think you'd be able too sadly, I'll have a look into it, thanks

Whats funny is I have the bigger brother of that case  just not a fan of big cases anymore, and well its made me want to start from scratch and I've always wanted to water cool.

 

My computer has been through so many alterations so I really want to get it right first time around, hence why I'm considering a £300 case haha

Also Fractal Design need to wake up and start giving us some TG already! Their define series would probably be the best on the market.

Exactly, I'm surprised they haven't considering every other manufacturer is following suit (Corsair going bonkers over the stuff)

 

Only issue I have with Fractal Design is the top panel, I hate how it looks without the moduvents. If they had something along the lines of the Corsair 460X I'd buy one in a heart beat.

 

Also now that I own the Evolv ATX I'm kind of a snob for aluminum.

Thermaltake core v1?

 

edit: scratch that it can only fit 2x80 mm fans

Cheers for the reply, the wall mounted one is a cool idea; I was looking at the Lian Li PC-O5 I think its called that's similar to that

 

As for the other 2 they're a little too big for my taste sadly but thanks for the suggestions

Turns out my prayers have been answered haha:

Phanteks Evolv mATX TG

 

So I'll probably be buying this case, granted it isn't a ITX case but mATX is close enough imo.

If you have the money to blow you could get the Lian-Li PC-Q37

Nice looking case and not that big, but by the looks of it I'd be able to fix max only 1 radiator sadly.
