Well my computer that i'm about to build is as follows:
Case: NZXT Phantom [Black]
MOBO: Asus Z77 Sabertooth
CPU: i7 3770k
CPUcooler: Corsair H100
GPUs: 1x Gainward Phantom GTX 670
1x Palit Jetstream GTX 670
PSU: Cosair GS 800
RAM: Corsair Dominators + Airflow
--------------------------------------
I have a few questions which I would like to ask :/
1. I have decided to use LED Fans as in 120mm CoolerMaster ones in pull above and attached to the case, then Corsair 120SPs in push under the radiator which will be attached under. i.e.

-Fan-Fan-
========
-Radiator-
-Fan-Fan-

I was just wondering whether all not there will be enough room for that of my Dominators WITH the airflow fans to fit.

2. Considering the front door panel will this fit? http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=408&products_id=7182

Okay. Don't get asus, unless you have the money to buy a new one if yours breaks, because the rma service is awful. Go with a gigabyte UD5H z77 or UD3H z77. If you want good looks, go with a intel extreme. If you are gaming, a i7 isn't needed at ALL. It uses HT which only helps with programs like CAD, CryEngine, UDK, etc. why are you mixing up brands of gpus? Espically from not so great brands? Go with 2 eVGA GTX 670s. If you can wait, the newest graphics cards are coming out in January, the new CPUs probobly around April. Coraair H100s are known to whine, go with a thermaltake water 2.0 extreme. Also, the corsair GS series adds some pretty lights and is a few tenners more, so go with a modular PSU with no lights. Like a OCZ ModXstream 700w. Corsair dominator a cost a LOT of money for extra speed, I would go with g skill Ripjaws or corsair vengeance. And, get 8 to 16 GB, 16 GB for future proofing. I imagine 16 GB will be the new 8 in 2 to 4 years.

Cause i'm reckless?... anyway and a GS800 is the same as a TX 750 where I am so.... and yeah... i'm going with 32GB of Dominator 4x8gb. I mix GPUs cause i'm more on the aesthetics over power in this build i'm currently making. Secondly, I don't like EVGA :/ heard they are ok...
 
evga is the best brand, by a lot, for nvidia. The person said its okay was not very smart. And the reason people choose 2 of the same cards is good asthetics. Dont go 2 seperate cards. If you want to waste a ton of money for good looks, stick with the sabertooth and corsair 32 gb. but get a i5.

Can I have some reason why EVGA is so strictly the "best" brand.

Sorry to everyone for being so... convoluted I had just done a rather long annual mathematics examination.. so brain wasn't there. Spirit i've decided to go with 1x Asus GTX 670 Cause apparently they have good warranties where I am.

Thanks Spirit ^_^
 
Seriously whats with the ASUS hate? Ive had no issues with my board since I bought it. Their RMA service has been good to me, and gigabyte by comparison's RMA was more painful to the point I had to send a broken card to them twice to solve the problem.
 
I've had no issues with ASUS either. Don't believe everything you read on the internet about their RMA service.
