Hmm well you want a full tower? The haf 932 and haf x are sweet.

i vote for haf 932, nice material, cable management, cool exterior, water cooling ready :toast:

Take this advice from somebody who just bought an 800D and watercooled it. If you are looking for nice airflow, the 800D DOES NOT HAVE IT. I should have purchased a HAF-X.

The three stock case fans do not move any air at all. I was not able to keep the side panel on because my GPU would overheat while IDLE. I replaced the bottom intake and rear exhaust with ~70 CFM fans and left the side panel off and I now experience some decent airflow. My GPU actually only goes up to 70 C after 20 minutes of Furmark Stress Mode with a 60% fan speed and my triple fan radiator is making sure my CPU stays below 60 C during extreme stress testing with IntelBurnTest. Keep in mind this is all with ~ 68-70 C ambient temperatures.
