I'm planning on building a new computer and I'd like to find a good case that I could put an aftermarket water system in. As far as price goes, I really dont want to top 250 dollars total for case and a COMPLETE watercooling: meaning tubing, radiator, coolant, pump, reservoir, cpu block, gpu block, chipset blocks, and maybe ram cooling. So any pre built LCS Cases dont really appeal to me as they are usually 250+ with only a cpu block.

Any advice would be great, I've looked around ebay, newegg, thermaltake's website, coolermaster, etc. but hving trouble finding a good value.

Check out microcenter, I just got a Titan Robela with water built in, and cpu and gpu block for under $200.

Does come with 1/4" hose, but I added 3/8 and it does a great job.

Silent too.

I did add 2 80mm case fans, one to cool the HDs and one pulling air out of the top of the case.

Personally, i think trying to find both a complete water cooling system and case for under $250 is going to be a waste of time. I wouldn't spend less than $250 on a good water cooling system much less a case to go with it.

Good luck on looking for something that cheap that also gives you the performance you want. I suggest either increasing your budget or just sticking to air cooling.

Read the review and checked prices online, the robela I couldnt find for less then 220+25 shipping, where did you find it under 200? Also it seems it cant hold any 600 watt plus PSU's? I'm probably going to have a heavily overclocked cpu and a intensive single gpu solution, I dont think a 400 watt psu will cut it. Does seem viable though if I can find it under 200 and mod the case to fit a larger psu.
