Silverston sugo series may be able to fit it all and it comes with a 600W psu.

Better bet looks like a lian li pc-q08. bottom HD bracket looks like it may be removable. then it should be able to handle a graphics card of any kind.

if not a pc-q25 may be able to fit the water cooler in the top back fan position, i kind of doubt it though. (this is my case)

and you may want to look over the last few pages of this thread. it may help give you some ideas about how everything will fit together

Here is pretty much what you can fit in a sugo sg05, minus a gtx680/670 as I have not bothered to buy one just yet, as this computer was mainly build to just do schoolwork on until games such as GTA5 come out. It games now, but that is console quality (720p) with intel hd 4000 which I am more than happy with for the time being. Specs in my sig.
Here are the pictures, didn't want to take up a whole page with them :o (Click to show)

Node 304 - no dvd drive
SilverStone Sugo ITX series: only take one 3.5" and a 2.5".

I have A 2TB drive and 2 1TB drives plus a SSD. I wanna just get a 2TB or a 3TB to replace the 2 1TB drives. I need alot of space for storage of work stuff.

If you really need space for work, 2.5" drives go up to 2TB (at 15mm tall) and 3.5" goes up to 4TB. These options are, of course, only really viable if money is of no concern.
A more budget oriented idea is to use a 2.5" 750GB-1TB drive for OS storage and keep the 3.5" 2TB drive for other stuff. Whatever the case, dropping to a single 3.5" drive will open up many more options for you.

I wouldn't get a Elite-120 if you plan on using an H60. From what I can see, the spacing from the cage to the mobo would only allow a single fan or single rad to fit. So for it to get air, you're moving air through the drive cage first and by the time it reaches the rad, it'll have much lower pressure. This point becomes moot if you use something like Delta fans.

There are certain things you have to accept when doing mitx. A ton of hdds is something not really achievable when you want a small case. My build is crammed, but that is what I was expecting.
