Good job on the build and log! Good call on the big case. Once you go with a full-feature-full-tower case you never look back. I've been really happy with my Silverstone- space for 8x3.5" drives and 5x5.25" drives and good airflow to boot. Heck, I could even mount a 240mm radiator and pump inside my case with no more modding than new mounting holes. The inverted motherboard was weird at first, but I've actually come to appreciate the odd orientation myself- you can actually see the fugly stickers they put on VGA heatsinks these days.

Does the backplate for the PSU come off that LianLi? It looks like you can unscrew it and possibly rotate 180 degrees to get the proper orientaion. I know that I can re-orient my PSU on my Silverstone case with just 4 screws.

Thanks. I love the setup, just need a new VGA card and I'll be pimpin'! Yeah, the inverted motherboard was a bit weird at first.. I kept putting the VGA card in the wrong way, and it was a chore using opposite hands for the screwing and 'holding the card in place'. And I've come to like it too, dont know why, just like it...
Yeah the back plate is removable, it was originally placed in the the proper orientation, but my 4-pin wire was a bit short, so I inverted the plate to have the PSU in the upper section, thus inverting the PSU too.
