I wanna move onto water cooling in a month or two and i dont really wanna use the wave master for that since, the case is cramped as it is. so iam looking for the best case to water cool and also be able to show off with a window.

i like the LL 2000 series, except that the window is on the left side :( , sucks. maybe a silverstone TJ07 when it comes out?
send me your suggestions and recommendations.
 
Gigabyte Aurora 3D is the easiest for water cooling, cause of holes etc, but it only has a 'mesh grill' so theres no window as of such sorry. umm maybe Thermaltake Tai-Chi? kinda expensive though..

EDIT: woops the Tai-Chi has no window either.... umm if i was u i would check out Lian-Li's for sure, ive seen some setups with them having watercooling and windows on right hand side
 
the v2000 is my current choice, except id get a window panel done. id have to figure out what to do with my case then since my table doesnt allow a case on the left side.
 
i have the v2000

wat a sweet case. jus the window is on the opposite side :( if anything ill still get it and figure out how to show off the internals
 
i think you can get used to it. If you put it next to your desk like me make sure that it can sit on the other side so poeple can see it.

I plan on getting some expanded metal to cover alot of the ugly stuff up. :D
 
i can just flip it upside down, lol. is the top and bottom of the case made with the same quality?
 
i dont think that will really work. The bottem has teh holes like in the front of the case and then you would have to cut off the wheel's on the bottem. Its also a little more structural at the bottem.
 
those things are a joke, they are like twice the size of a normal case, but i guess you would have lots of room in there. Iv seen one of those with a watercooled setup before, no clue where anymore.
 
Mine........................ :eek:

Lets see you put all that water cooling in a normal case and still have room to work. Now that would be a REAL joke......................:)
 
thats a sick case.
if any1 is interested in alot more pics, chek the egg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811163014

iam adding this case to my list of contenders

EDIT: didnt the guys who started silverstone original work for CM and then branched off and made SS? the case internal look very much like my wave master. iam wondering if the dimensions match up, if so id like to attach the front of the wave master to this case. that would be a "best of both worlds" situation for me.

I like the lili v1000 personally... the perferated surfaces let that case breath so well, and the BTX config rocks! plus having the hard drives and[/] psu down in their own little "areas" let's you unclutter the mobo area so well... I guess the v1200 and v2000 are similar in those ways also, but they are a tad too big for my taste... my $0.02 :)
