Well, here is what I put together thus far: As you can see, I am missing a GPU, and have to fabricate something for my resevoir to hang out on. Once I get holes drilled for the res, I will spend some time routing wires, and finish installing my fans and await for the GPU!

xigmatek elysium. Only thing I didnt like about it(beside plastic front panel I/O shield moving between metal), was that a locking device for top dust filter was like a black cunt hair too big for my radiator, so I carefully removed with a flathead! haha. But it has lots of room, for anything you can think of
 
Drill holes... reservoir? Why not get a 5.25" single-bay like I did? And attach the pump to those holes... with some gel between it and the case.

Edit: Also I'll sell you my GTX 480 with waterblock for $150 shipped :-P . (I also have the unused original cooler with screws in a plastic bag).

Because filling a bay res seems more of a hassle to me, than once I get this tube res installed.
 
I may not have to drill holes, I just decided to give it a break until I get GPU so I can see what room I have to work with. I can always fabricate an adapter for my res
 
I've organized the tubes as such that the ones going to it are pretty long so you can pull it out of the bay and refill it and then put it back in without disconnecting anything :-) .

when you pull res out, I take it that is made of acrylic?? how long will the holes last from being re-threaded? 3-4 drains/fills
 
My case doesn't have screws, it's those plastic pins that pop in when you press a button... If it had screws, I'd probably just leave it in without screwing it in anyway. I don't think the acrylic would last long - if you tighten it a lot. If you don't, it might be okay.
