Good Case for water cooling

I currently have Chieftec that I have modded to fit a Black Ice Extreme on the intake fan. My set up fits but its a little cramped and I feel that the pump is hindering some airflow. I have been looking for a nice big case and am contemplating a ufo from mountainmods. I have also looked at the lian li server cases but they appear to be the same size as my current case. Is there anything else I'm missing.
 
So you have a mid tower case now? My Lian Li isn't a server case, but it's a large full tower and I have no problems moving around inside it. The new models are even better from what I understand.
 
CM Stacker. You can put 3 120mm fans right up the drive bays, so a triple 120 rad is very do-able. I personally will be doing a double rad though so i still have room for HDDs and stuff. Though a triple rad just sounds so kickass.
 
Well, I just bought a Silverstone TJ-03 to build my new WC rig in. It's kinda pricy though. LOTS of room with that EATX mobo tray. The case is also longer (than a standard mid or server chassis) which is allowing me to top mount my res and 2x120mm rad.

Really what you wanna do is some planning. Figure out whats gonna go in the case. Figure out where you want it to go. Then find a case that has the dimms to handle your rig. I researched about 2 weeks before I chose my case.
