Would not go with a IFX-14, but may i ask, why did you go with LGA-775? tbh it isn't very upgradable as you said you wanted. They are making new chips (Q9500 and Q9500S) but LGA-1156 and LGA-1366 is where it is at.. Anyway, work on upgrading that graphics card.

X58 and P55 gear is expensive over here,I will upgrade in a few years however .I got a good deal on the Q9550 too.

New ram (4GB XMS3) and a fan controller (Scythe Kaze Master) coming next week.

New HDD (Probably a Corsair X32) and Graphics (5 Series,or a GT300) coming in early new year.

Heres a pic of the IFX-14 for anyone who wants to see it

Good job. It looked like it would be hard to improve on your past cable management but I can tell the difference
