So I have this build, and i'm thinking of another case.

CPU: Intel Core i7 - 3770k
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100 Liquid Cooler
Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth Z77
RAM: G.Skill RipjawsZ 16GB DDR3-2133 CL9-11-10 quad kit
SSD: Corsair Force Series 3 240GB
GPU: 2x Palit Jetstream GTX 680 4GB SLI
PSU: XFX Pro 1050W Black Edition
Case: Zalman Z11 Plus

My build details & pictures (Dutch site)

Now in this case, it's very thight. My CPU cooler hardly fits (with alternative options I still use it), and push&pull configuration will never fit! My GPU's don't have very much fresh air, because there is no side fan, and the front fan hardly reaches it because of the PCIe cables.

Should I buy a new (Bigger!!!) case? And which one would you suggest? I like the Aerocool Xpredator Black Edition very much, because it looks so good, and has 4 fans on the GPU's.
But will my PSU cables reach the top of the case? I don't want any cables in front of my motherboard, I want them all through the cable management panel on the backside. And will my Corsair H100 fit in this case, and where? since the top fan is 1 big one.
