Hey guys I am currently building a water cooling system for a desktop.

I am using the Thermal Take Mk1 case (Not sure about this, looking for better one)
i7-3770k Processor
Sapphire Vapor-X Radeon HD 7950 video card (x1 for now)
AX850 PSU
256GB SSD
ASUS Maximus V EXTREME LGA 1155 Intel Z77 Motherboard

I have a few questions:
What would be a better case? My price range is $200 and under. I need something that is open and has a good glass view from the side and provides good flow so it won't be tight squeezes.
What video card block would be good for this video card?

and as a general question, what would be the best site to buy all my water cooling parts?


Thanks for the help!
 
Honestly just get the Corsair H80 and mount it where the stock 120mm fan is on the back of your case for the cleanest look. You can't build a full loop for $200, and the H80 will provide plenty of cooling for that CPU to atleast 4.8ghz.

Edit- OK I read that wrong I think. You are looking for a case under $200? Any size restrictions?

I'm going to be watercooling my whole rig anyhow. The $200 is for the case not water cooling equipment. I know that water cooling stuff will cost me roughly $600. I need to know what is a good website to buy from? I am using frozencpu for now.
