Here goes nothing! This is phase0 and phase1.
-
TuF (The Ultimate Force) Sabertooth Z77
-
TuF (The Ultimate Force) Thermal Armor on the Asus Z77
-
Coolermaster Hyper 212+ with Push/Pull 120MM Coolermaster Blademaster PWM fans.
-
32GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866 RAM
-
Dual OCZ Vertex 4 SATA III 128GB SSD's (Phase 2 brings a Raid 0 setup) Dual Western Digital Black 7200RPM 1TB SATA III (Phase 2 brings a Raid 0 setup)
-
Single EVGA GTX680 FTW+ (4BG DDR5) w/ Backplate - Phase 1.5 (Monday says UPS!) will bring a 2nd EVGA GTX680 FTW+) adds dual SLI. - Phase 2 will add a fan to that graphics card air channel device for cross flow.
-
Dual 120MM Cougar PWM controlled fans. Loving the PWM so far, it has given much better dissipation through the top. 140MM Cougar @ max (±1200 RPM) at the rear for exhaust
-
One of the two 40MM TuF fans that circulate air through the thermal armor. The other is hidden near the IO panel on the mobo. Seems to work well enough.

Here is my final benchmark for 3dMark11. Thanks for letting me spend all that time tweaking babe, oh, and dealing with 85%+ fans. I smell watercooling, but for now maybe lap the stock coolers and reapply TIM? I beat the noobs, that's all that matters!
