I think i'm blind?

The 540 is a gorgeous case. Looks like it's got lots of water cooling potential too and it also comes with a price tag to match it!

I don't like the look of the other one at all!

Thanks :)
 
In my opinion the Cooltek W2 is a much better chassis than the Air 540 and it supports ATX. I have one and it was a joy to build in. Can support up to 5 HDDs and 1 ODD. It will also handle air and water cooling happily. I also think it's much prettier than than the 540 and is also smaller in size too.

Nice looking case actually. I'd seen pictures of that before but just assumed it was MATX. What's the quality of the side window like? So many of these windowed cases seemed plagued with poor quality perspex that scratches as soon as you look at it! Also, can you mount a 240 AIO on the bottom of this case? I don't even know if that's something you'd want to do ideally anyway, or if it would be best front mounted?
 
The side window is of better quality and I have cleaned mines several times and have yet to see a scratch. You can mount a 240 on the bottom or mount a 240/280 on the front.

Me personally, I would mount a 240/280 on the front and put two intake fans on the bottom and leave the rear as an exhaust.
 
Two front magnetic 140mm dust filters (each filter has two screw holes and two magnets). The bottom dust filter is adequate (similar to the filter you get on the bottom of the NZXT H230 but the cooltek one is 240mm in length). Most important there is a 140mm magnetic filter for the PSU unlike the 540 which does not have one. If you are going to install a 240 on the front just pick up two magnetic 120mm dust filters from OcUK. The standard filters for me are perfect and three months after building my computer it is still relatively dust free inside.
 
Yes it is possible just do search for cooltek w2 in google images - I am sure I saw a few images with the setup you want.
