    Best budget water cooling case?

    I was thinking something along the lines of this: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/product...ProductID=9288
    the aerocool baydream which seems to be a resonably good copy of a CM stacker, but at a much more attractive price.

    Though that being said it is also a fair bit lower than my budget of about £50-60 (not that cheap is bad or anything) the only requirements for it are to have plenty of interior room for a water cooling setup, either space for a 120mmx2 rad as standard, or a place that one can be put with some dremel work (for example on that case the top can have a couple of blow holes cut for a 120x2)

    Any sugestions?

    There's one downside to that case, it's a BTX layout which may cause you problems when choosing a motherboard and PSU combination to go inside it.

    All the reviews I have seen of it say it is ATX, with a BTX conversion kit, though they may be wrong.
