I just picked up an Innovatek water cooling kit, and my existing case is just going to be too much trouble to try to retrofit for the 120 mm fan and radiator. Can someone recommend a good full-tower case that fits the Innovatek kit plus four hard drives? Looks aren't important. NO WINDOWS, though - got a lot of radio gear that doesn't like the RF. Just something basic and roomy.

the antec sonata would be a good choice in my opinion, not too big, nice and quiet, good price.. otherwise, modding the case to fit a 120mm fan isn't all that hard and definitely cheaper to do than buying a new case.. all you need is a 120mm whole-saw, which you use to cut a hole in the top of your case, then drill out the mounting holes and you're done - an hour max

<b>Well, got DSL back - now I need to split my connection through my comp and switch, stupid new modem doesn't have built-in router... urgh. One good thing though - watercooling!!</b>
