Looking for suggestions on a case for my next mod. As of right now I'm pretty set on the NZXT Switch 810 but then I saw some mods using the Corsair 600D... Now I'm not sure.

Anyone have a suggestion on what case to use for a steampunk mod? I really want a full tower but a mid tower might work. It needs to fit 3 rads (120, 240, 360 or 120, 2x240)

I'm also liking the 500R...

I still like the Switch 810, and the Phantom. Although the smooth curves on the Corsair would look rad with leather stretched over it.

Well, if you like the Cooler Master Stacker 830, I'll let you buy me a Silverstone Fortress FT02 and I'll send you my Stacker 830.

Seriously though, (although I would accept that trade), I like the cases you have picked. I think the 600D is the best "blank slate" of the bunch, so I would go with that, although the features on the Switch 810 are pretty nice.

The switch 810 looks very slick although it would be nice to see the 500R modded.

Does that mean you are no longer looking at the 600D?

I never was. I meant the 600T but either way, I think I'm going to get the 500R. I can mod a 360 into the top, a 120 in the back and a 240 in the front.

Good. I can't have you stealing my 600T's thunder :P
