Gentlefolk,
Want to pick your brains.
I'm currently in the process of putting together my new build and looking to see what the options are these days with cases. I live in Australia these days so it's a bit harder to find a list of what's available as there's no real super supplier that stocks everything here so apologies for the noddy question.
My PC is going to be specced as follows
Don't care about a window but you don't seem to have a choice.
ITX would be ideal but none of the cases seem to be able to fit dual radiators without being fugly.
mATX seems to have died as a thing.
So it seems ATX is the way to go. I really like the Evolv ATX but it's not much smaller than my Corsair 650d (that replaced a TJ07 I got rid of because it's size did my head in), and as my 650D looks a bit clunky I'd like something a bit more upmarket but from what I've seen upmarket these days seems to equal MASSIVE. As I don't have 6*3.5 drives and a couple of opticals anymore it's stupid but it also doesn't fit in with my man cave schtick and a 35 year old man having a case the size of a truck and decked out with idiot lights seems ill-befitting to me.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My PC is going to be specced as follows
- Dual Radiator, preferably 2*360 but 1*360 and 1*240 is ok.
- Protium D5 res and pump combo which is 240-300mm depending on res size (https://www.singularitycomputers.com/protium-d5-ddc-release/)
- Space for 2.5" drive, Storage will be a 1TB 960 pro onboard and a 2TB 850 Evo
- 7700K
- 1080 Ti with a waterblock
- Some form of motherboard
- Ideally retain my Soundblaster ZXR, though I can go USB if I have to.
