Advice/Feedback on Devil's Canyon build.

Budget:
$6500

Expectations:
Smoothest gaming experience on highest/ultra settings. Run dual monitors at 1920x1080 but don't plan to span games across both. I expect the system to last a good 6 years. OS will be loaded on the 256SSD, the other 512GB SSD will be all games/steam.

Usage:
70% gaming (mmo, fps, moba, rpg, [Steam games as well]), 20% surfing/streaming, 10% photoshop/illustrator work.

Special Needs:
Fiancee and I have several cats. Office is on a second floor so it gets warm in the summertime. Based on those, we want a system that's quiet, emits little heat, and tries to stave off the feline fur fiasco!

First time going through Digital Storm and definitely wanted to bounce this system off of others before pulling the trigger. Ideally, I really wanted the full on copper pipe custom cooling system and supplemental controls but felt it was pushing the build budget just beyond what I wanted to spend. I'm also not aware of how much maintenance would be involved with a custom cooling setup as I've never had one.

I would love to hear some feedback on the build, maybe criticize choices, etc. Thanks and definitely looking forward to the responses.

bprat22 pretty much nailed it all on the head.

There have been some issues in the past regarding the H110 not working with the Aventum II due to the tubing not being long enough. I would recommend switching to either the Noctua cooler or going with a custom loop.

Looks like an overall solid build. Regarding dropping to a stage 1 OC, considering you have gone with a custom loop heat won't be an issue and the Devil's Canyon chip can definitely hit 4.5-4.8.

There isn't a reason it shouldn't unless i'm forgetting something.

Well you pretty much lose the purpose (exhaust chamber) but you do get one bad-ass looking case
