Switching Case. Thoughts (Switch 810?)

Supposedly, you should be able to fit a Black Ice GT Xtreme 420mm rad in the top. Interestingly enough, a 420mm radiator (140mm x 420mm) has just a bit more more surface area than a 480mm radiator (120mm x 480mm) (just under 2 inches squared larger). There is room at the bottom for a 240mm rad if your power supply isn't too long (avoid those 1250w PSUs).
I've been through tons of cases looking for one that would be good for watercooling, and tit is really hard to find a case that covers everything that you might want. The Azzo Gensis 9000 is supposed to have room for a 480mm and 240mm rad, but it is enormous and has no side window. I suppose you could modify one of the side panels and put an acrylic window on it, but I don't have the ability to do something like that. I do like that you can reverse the motherboard tray, though. The only other cases are either limited to a max of 240mm radiators or are over $500USD.
While I have the know-how to modify a case if need be, I had an accident that partially paralysed my left hand and ruined any chances of building a custom case for a decent watercooling system. The Switch 810 is looking like the best choice under $500 for radiator surface area. Of course, there are only one or two 420mm radiators that fit the Switch 810 without modification because of the fan-to-fan spacing of the 140mm fan mounting holes on the case. From what I've read, the case has 20mm fan spacing, and the only radiators that have that spacing are the Black Ice models. I don't mind as long as I can find some way of fitting a 420 or 480 into some case somewhere, and it seems the Switch 810 is the only one that looks decent in my price range.
