Anyone have ideas top mount is not desired because of trying keep air out of the loop.

stats on setup:
d5/mcp655, apogee gt, mcr320, 5-1/4 dualbay rez, 6x yate 120mm 701 series, primoflex 1/2 tubes

I have it on a case with mcr320 external right now looks bad

cutting and modding case in not a problem
or purchasing another under $100
 
as long as the cheap case is a tower, you could put it in the lower 5.25" drive bay section (provided that there's enough room for the remaining drives) at the front of the case. Other than that, bolt it to the floor of the case by drilling holes for 3 radboxes.

like this:

case floor>triple radboxes>triple fan>triple rad>triple fans

If you're gonna mod the case anyways, why not get an old server case that's a full tower from a Goodwill location or something, they usually have oldies around for the mod-inclined.
