TTA, hands down. I really wish I had bought a TTA when I built this thing. When I put together my C2D machine, it will have a TTA. Its just got so much room to work with. I was thinking a Antec p180 would be cool, but getting the thing setup would be a pain in the BEEP.


Well, anyways, TTA gets my vote Just think of all the room you'll have and the awesome look

GL with the case!

I voted for the Coolermaster 810, although I think you should get a 820. Same price, and sometimes even cheaper. Don't limit yourself to Newegg for the case. Zipzoomfly is cheaper AND has free shipping.

I have modded my Stacker for a internal 360mm radiator...

All depends on the cooling you are using.
Watercooling - Full Armor, hands down
Air cooling - 830/832 would be your best bet, but 810 would suffice.

If you are concerned about being original, go for the 810 over the armor, the armor is used widely among these kinds of communities, and the 810 is just so clean.. who can't love it? Personally though, I like the armor.
