I'm looking for a small form factor case that could fit a micro-ATX motherboard and watercooling for processor and a gtx 680 and It would be preferable if it had a window to see the beauty. thumb.gif

The Silverstone TJ08E has been popular lately for watercooling in the mATX form factor. No window, but you could cut one pretty easy thumb.gif

Another option is the Lian Li A04, looks like you could fit a 240 up front

Not many of the cases that I can think of off the top of my head have windows though, I dont know why that is

If you can move down to a ITX rig, Bitfenix Prodigy looks absolutely awesome. You could fit a thick 240mm and one of those 200mm rads inside it. Cutting a panel looks easy enough.

Yeah I considered ITX, but I need a PCI X1 for my Asus Xonar Essense. thumb.gif
