ok... plan on gaming, allot..and want it to last for many years so i know i went overkill on some stuff..but..rather get it now then have to upgrade later, and i know stage 3 cooling is overkill on haff, but fig why not, more cooling the better and is req for the controler. and im ordering everything from DS cause i just want it all at once, not from 2-3 diff places and waiting to get em all to set it up. heh

there is no messing with LC, and you won't get the OC speeds with air that you can get with LC

if you want get everything here go ahead, I'm just recommending, you got to do what you likes

trust me , order your monitor and stuff from newegg. it will get to your place before your pc.

a couple of suggestions .

GET LIQUID COOLING !!  your OC will be way more stable and higher
The speakers that they offer SUCK. dont even bother. Logitech z-5500 . only way to go in terms of 5.1 unless you plan to spend a lot of money

You could save some money if you didnt get the extreme processor and OC'd . you could probably get a real aggressive OC if you go with the Rampage and the CPU LC.

also i must say. good choice on HDD's and PSU. i have the same . and i love them.

i still wanna see someone get the HAF with exterior paint. maybe white . or red. that would be sick !!!!

I like them because they have the headphone and mic jack on the vol control.
