I was interested in buying a custom built water cooling case but it seems that it's pretty hard to find one. I just might have to install one myself. I'm not interested in cutting or any type of modding to my case though. What is the best case which I can use to mount a radiator externally and install a pump/reservoir internally? I'm interested in cases that would cost about $100 to $200. Ijust want to find a case where I can just easily put everything together.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

alos the gigabye auroa something like that has gromets and a 120mm mount for a radiator... and is designed for a WC loop... otherwise some modding will be needed..
frozencpu.com also have WC kit cases...

With the TT Armor or CM stacker, you can install a 2x120 radiator in front without cutting any metal. The gigabyte Aurora 3D may allow a 2x120 rad in the back without mods.
Any case with a 120 exhaust fan should work with an external 1 or 2x120 rad and a radbox, or possibly mounted inside.
All of those cases are in your price range.

Be careful if you're using 1/2" ID tubing, it'll be a tight fit through a pci slot (found that out with my apex kit), and since it doesn't have much room to bend the options might be limited unless you're willing to drill some holes.

Plus the Armor has pre-cut holes above the rear 12cm fan which are ideal when you're using a radbox, except again they're a little bit too small for 1/2" so I had to file mine out a bit (apart from that I like it a lot).
In other words, for ease of installation, go for a smaller bore W/C kit
