You can put a 360 at the top of the Switch 810 or a 420 with some modding required. You can throw a 240 on the bottom.

If I were to go for a switch 810 I would definitely get white.

A few months back I saw the phantom for the first time and I had my mind set on getting that but since then I've made watercooling a priority and noticed the phantom is not good for water cooling.

It may not be the popular choice, but it is different... I have the Antec 1100. And after a little cutting, I managed to fit three single 120's inside in a push/pull configuration. You can also house up to 11 fans on the entire case. Right now I'm working 9 fans. Check out my build to see detailed pictures.

I PM'd you. Usually I only buy from newegg or ebay but I may make an exception considering the price of the case your selling is great and you have good ratings smile.gif

The cheapest case you can tolerate, for example Scarkoon Rebel 12 is the cheapest full tower I'm aware of and mount somekind of overkill radiator externally to the side-panel. Something like

Just get a bigger case (the one in picture is modded Revoltec Fifty 3, which is rather small). The radiator on the picture is Nova 1080 - a 9x120mm one for approx 100 euros (although when I bought it it was 90).

I'd go for the Switch 810. Seems like a really nice case with all the modern features such as great Cable management, buttom mounted PSU, Tons of space, lots of fan mounts, and supports water cooling extremely well. AND it has a nice big window biggrin.gif
