Need a new computer case

Hello all.

I'm going to be moving my computer into an entirely different case. I'm basically just looking for a good sized case for me to upgrade and fit a water cooling system inside. My old computer is hot as hell and i cannot keep it cool for the life of me.

Basically i'm just looking for a stylish case that might be better suited to keep air flow at a maximum until i upgrade to water cooling. Also looking for a case that has some extras to it.
ex. usb ports, firewire, etc. in the front would be a plus

Thanks in advance!!

It has excellent reviews, looks great, can support BTX (with an upgrade), and has plenty of room for water cooling. The USB/headphone/mic/firewire ports are on teh top though, which can be a good or bad thing.
 
i'm a lian li fan.
theyre pretty expensive and dont have a PSU but they just have the sleek yet powerful type of look. also, aluminum is very moddable, but I don't know if you are into that kind of stuff.
 
depends on how much you're looking to spend, seeing you're going to use water cooling you could probably get a lian li like everyone else suggested. they'll probably solve some of your heating issues by themselves plus they look freaking clean. however if you're like me and have no money i just took off my side panel and thats my cooling 😛

Thanks for all the suggestions. Could anyone recommend a good watercooling kit? i have one in mind, but i'd like to know if there's any favorites out there?

I was reading a review of this in Maximum PC and while it got pretty good reviews they did say it is a flimsy case. The reviewer went on to say that while inserting a vid card the chassis was wobbly. But it does have tons of space and plenty of room for water cooling.
