Ok I currently have a small cpu loop in my lian li mid tower. I want to do full on watercooling and include my two HD 5850s in the loop as well. My cpu is currently an old phenom II but I will upgrade to piledriver when that comes out. This presents my first question, namely how much radiator am I going to need to make sure I am future proofed? I feel a triple rad is probably too small so a triple and a double or a single quad is probably necessary right? I want a fulltower so i can have space for a largish amount of raddage, space for potentially two pumps for redunacy and good amount of maneovoruing space for HDDs and psu (mounting for SSDs would be good as well).
As for a brand I like lian li tick a lot of boxes for me and i can either use their own proprietary top cover to get a triple in the top of one of their full towers or buy a quad grill and get a quad in the top.
I like the a71f and it is within my budget ... good choice? I also like the look of the v2120x but it is very expensive and is for hptx and therefore probably unnecessary. I have lately heard some people say lian lis are over priced and are bad quality. This is the experience I have had with mine, is there a better choice out there I am NOT a fan of the looks of the 800D very boring?
