Hello Hardware,

First off, this is my first post here. So I might screw up this post badly :p 

I'm trying to future-proof (HAH) to at least the end of my senior year. Currently a sophomore. I'm replacing my current POS Dell Precision 670 with a custom built PC, but I'm kind of flipping out over cases.

My hardware specs will be:

3 Sata HDDs, for now, with possible expansion to 4 or 5 in the future.
i7 2600k
750w PSU (allows for a crap ton of power for the future)
16gb RAM
MSI Z77A-G41 Intel Z77 Motherboard.
EVGA 560 Ti Superclocked

I have all these components already, but am very hesitant when looking at cases to put them in. I looked at the Apevia X-TRP-BL
X Trooper, but have been warned that it can't fit a CPU cooler or a second graphics card. I might decide to GET a CPU cooler or a second 560 ti graphics card in the future, so I'd obviously want a case that can fit both with ease.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
