Well I built the thing, I'd have taken pictures but it was pain in ass. I also got these:

AeroCool F6XT Controller, Panel

COOLER MASTER Hyper N 520 RR-920-N520-GP 92mm Sleeve CPU Cooler Intel Core i7 compatible
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103057

The stock cooler I read sucks, so had no love of the idea of later changing it out, thus bought a new one. And then the fan controller for my 6 fans :/ it's ok, the thing is kinda loud but not to loud, I believe the PSU fan or cooler fans do this idk

Here's review of case fans

So yea :Z I had issue it supposedly shut down when i was at work during burn-in-test, however power had flickered in my room before I left so I think power simply went off when I was away.

After 12 hours blend with prime95 and furmark no shutdown redface.gif also I re-organized it using ties and stuff (grounding issue?) but whatever I"m about to run a small fft test for 12 hours, we'll see how it goes bye

I ended up spending around 800 bucks when all was done, that's excluding the videocard which I"ll buy at a later time :X Sheesh........ Oh well it seems stable I'll test it again when I'm at work for 24 hours with Prime95 Blend, the ram passed 7 hours of memtest+ so eh, i'll just leave it running tests all day when I goto work for 11 hours until I'm satisfied bye

Oh one final thing, I was getting 50C full load of IGP and CPU and I saw others with much lower scores for same things, the Hyper N520 was only thing that'd fit into my case....... Anyways I added a side fan to the case and boom 10C drop ***! I was stunned. 10C! that's huge......... but yea anyways it's good now 7 fans lol

A down draft cooler works very well for keeping all temps lower

I ended up ditching the fan controller (was rather useless and made the thing much more cluttered) for less fans. I have 2 of the Magnetic Bearing fans in the case, 1 bottom 1 top, then a 75 cfm fan on the heatsink evo 212

If I must I'll add another fan later but it seems fine this way. I'm content :X

It was wayyyyyyyy to loud with 3 of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835226042 I just used it for the heatsink PERFECTO..
