Hey guys at the moment i have a Coolermaster Cosmos 2 case, now its like the biggest case you buy right now and its a great case but i think its too big, really no where to put and i was wondering if you guys could suggest cases to me, i have a few specs that need to be catered for first i have an e-atx board (rampage IV extreme x79) so that already rules out quiet alot of cases, i also need to be able to mount my H100 rad, also i need a case that wil be able to suport two refrence 7970's as well as a capture card, sound card and a ASUS Raider when it comes out so thats a total of at least 7 pci slots. i am god awful at cable managing and price well prefrebly not over $400 AUS. ive already had a level 10 GT and i didnt really like it, cheap construction and shitty cable managment. i have 4 HDD's a;ready and would want at least 6 total HDD bays. i know im a little picky, but performance as well as aesthetics are everything too me. below is my rig as it is now so you can get an idea:

CPU: Intel core I7 3930k @ 4GHz
mobo: Asus ROG Rampage 4 extreme
RAM: 16GB Kingston hyper x 1600 oc to 2000
CPU Cooling: Corsair H100 Dual rad
case: Coolermaster Cosmos 2
Graphics:Dual AMD Radeon 7970
power supply:OCZ ZX 1000 - going to use AX1200 in new build
Main HDD: segate 1TB
secondary HDD's: 3 2TB WD Green drives

I currently have the Rosewill Blackhawk Mid-Tower, but they do have an Ultra tower. I love my Mid-Tower and it is big enough to be a Full Tower, was $90, had easy cable management, comes with 5 Fans 2 of which are blue-led, Offers support for H100 Radiator and offers 4 USB 2.0, and 2 USB 2.0 on Top! Also has a hotswap bay.

IMO it sounds like you are kind of screwed. I would personally go on newegg and narrow down the search results and then see what you can get.

Pretty sure the second one is out of your range.

for first i have an e-atx board (rampage IV extreme x79)


It does not matter what case you change to because it's going to be overly big regardless.

Should of done some research on your parts before over spending.

P.S - 2 7970's don't justify a 1200w PSU. Spending money just to spend it ( or so it seems ). Consumerism.
