my water cooling system has two 2x120 loops, and i also have an 3 disk raid array i need to fit in addition to two 2x120's, or potentially bigger? i intend to additionally get two ssd's so some room for those two would be nice.

case i got now is kind of acceptable, but im bored of it and i need a case for my server ill be building too

here is how things look now for parts/layout, more passive convective cooling would be nice if possible to get rid of those fans. Second radiator/pump is mounted at bottom front of the case

been somewhat thinking such a case may not exist.. might be time to design/build a custom case
 
took a close look at the case, looks like it may fit the radiators but pumps would be another story, im not afraid of modding a case to make the water cooling fit btw, if that broadens my choices

sata backplane is a neat idea tho

was also thinking of this to consolidate things a bit:

i have personally looked and looked at new cases and found none, i think modern case design prohibits old school style water cooling mounting strategy, so im somewhat hoping someone chimes in with a old case design that i have forgotten that works better

atm it looks like cube is the only thing that really fits the bill, but they cost close to $400 before even shipping, and are far from portable =(
 
Are you willing to split one of the 2x120mm? The NZXT Vulcan has room for a 2x120mm radiator at the top and 2 places - front bottom and rear CPU for 120mm radiators.
 
not a big fan of that concept, but i suppose it indeed is an option that may broaden my case choices
