First off, my budget is around £100

Its got to house a watercooled setup, ive got a drive bay res and a 120mm rad ill be using, the rest ive yet to buy.
Id like my pump under the res and 2 rads, a top 240mm and a rear 120mm.

Ive got 3 SSD's so HDD bays are not really needed, the space below the 5.25 bays will have the pump in and the rest will be kept free for air intake.

Im looking at the Zalman HS2 but i think ill be pushed for room with the rads and id like the front under the 5.25 bays completley free.

Id prefere a side window as it'd save me putting one in.

As for style, ive got an Antec 300 and i like the basic look, ill probably be putting a bit of lighting on the new build to show off the watercooling but im not into the flashy led cases.

Thanks
:D
 
For a watercooling setup and 120mm radiator some of the Lian Li tower cases should be suitable A70/71+ maybe even one of the V-series. Also some of the Silverstone towers would be suitable.

I realise a brand new case out of the above selections maybe more than £100 so would be worth looking on a certain auction site or in the members market if you get above 250 posts.

The Lian Li and Silverstone cases are expensive but will last you a good few years if you can stretch your investment. There are numerous pics of watercooling rigs in these cases in the New Cases thread - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17185358.
 
Ive just bought a Lian Li PC-G70B off a certain auction site, its a decent sized case which the PO has modded a little, its got a side window, sprayed black inside, top cut out and a grill fitted to take a 360 rad.

Thanks for the help
