I agree it is a very good case. Although it became too small with a 240MM radiator and 4 HDD.

Ok, well here is the entirety of my cooling setup in my current set, which is an ATX case.
2x Scythe Glide Stream 140mm 1.600rpm on the side blowing air at the cards.
Radiator for the CPU at the front of the case on intake, which pushes more air directly at the cards. (the air is cool, not hot)
2 Arctic cooling PWM exhaust on the top of the case.
1 Arctic cooling PWM on the back exhausting air.
I could also add another fan at the bottom of the case pushing air up as well, but I think that might only effect the bottom card.

The Lian Li x2000F I have is super tall (like an FT02 on end. Doesn't sound like you want a tall one though.) It'd be pretty easy to mod for a huge rad up front either, a 140x3 or 140x4 (seen it done!) and a 280 in the back. Would take some modding but would a fun case to set up for water imo 
I am just to chicken to try water, lol...

I have a M8 and it is great. But they are pricey. The Termaltake X9 mentioned earlier looks like a mainstream version of the Mercury S8S

LOTS of room inside, fits every major GPU, PSU, Mobo (even eATX) that I know of, and has plenty of space for rads/fans etc too !
