Evening folks,

I'm currently in the process of upgrading my system but I need a little help in regards to what I should get.
Currently I have Coolermaster HAF 932 case which is pretty good as it's the ideal size for me as it will be sitting on a desk, however I wonder if I can do better.
What I would like is a case that:

a) will allow good airflow as I plan on going crossfire and the room can get quite hot

b) I would like to use an all-in-one water cooler for the cpu so any advice on that would be good but the H80 or the H100 are the ones I'm looking at if that makes a difference

c) Only one Blu ray drive will be installed so only 1 optical drive space is required

d) I'll require space for 3 SSD drives and 1 normal hard drive

e) I'd also like the case to have USB 3

As for the motherboard I plan on having crossfire and a sound card so enough PCI Express slot space is a must.

Any recommendations are appreciated :)
 
Budget for the case would be about £150 and about £200 for the motherboard.
I'm planning on getting the 4770k and hopefully overclock it.
 
Thanks for the recommendations folks, I absolutely love that Corsair 760T case, it may be bigger than what I wanted but I think it's a must for me now.
I was just reading another post on here and someone mentioned there are new Intel chips out soon. Is it worth waiting for them? I'm currently using a 2600k.

Just placed an order for that case.:D
