I would personally go with the Corsair 600T. Seems like a good price compared to the HAF X and the Raven. I've also seen quite a few in the "Show us the inside of your case" etc. threads, and they do look brilliant.

yeh ive been looking at it its nice but is it better for cable mangement?

I'd go with the HAF X as my first choice, but the 600T would be running up a real close second

The HAF X is bigger than the 600T so if room is the main need, which in your OP it does sound like I would suggest it.

LiamJ · 23 Dec 2010 at 11:55

I think the 600T is big enough to be honest. I've never really liked the aesthetics of the HAF series of cases though, so that may be affecting my choice.

sooo haf-x then how much would i get on mm for the 690 ii with window?

Scone · 24 Dec 2010 at 09:15

still need dem experts what about the nzxt phantom?

The Phantom and BitFenix absolutely ming so I'd say they're out

The Raven is more for air cooling that case.
Of the ones you selected, the best for watercooling would be the Haf X or Corsair for me.
If you so a search for "Case watercooling" loads will come up.
