Hi, I'm trying to look for casings under Rm 700 for watercooling. Best if it includes holes for me to mount a radiator, and has a lot of space. Other than that, I don't ask for anything else. Any recommendations? Best if I can get them from a UK-based site.

CM HAF X, HAF 932 if you want a 360 radiator on top.

CM 690 II if you want dual 240 mm radiator. icon_rolleyes.gif

go for 360 rad casing like CM HAF X or HAF932 is spacious enough. CM ATS840 also good but slightly out of your budget

Cosmos S and ATS840 out of my budget. I don't mind mounting rad either inside or outside of the case but I think if it is outside, the performance will be better? I'm in UK currently and the temperature is around 15 degrees. If rad is outside I think it will cool faster?

Which of the recommended models have rad outside?

Just to answer ur question the h2 in its most basic with no added option such as bay covers or ssd hdd cage cost 500 usd without internation shipping. Probably somewhere along or close to RM2000 if you want to get it into malaysia.
