Build:
i7 4770K (when it comes out, but for now assume it's the same as the i7 3770k) - I plan to undervolt it to around 0.9V and leave it at base clocks (no Turbo/OC)
32GB RAM 2133mHz - Haven't decided brand/model yet
256GB * 2 in RAID 0 - Samsung 840 Pro SSDs
GTX 680 - Gigabyte Windforce Model
Corsair TX650 PSU
Auzentech Forte Sound Card
My goal to is put this hardware in the smallest case possible. I don't need any 5.25" drives and would like USB 3.0 on the front port. Cooling won't be too much of an issue at 0.9V, but i'd prefer a quiet fan / AIO cooling solution like the kraken X40 (will be leaving it on "silent" mode). If anyone knows any other great solutions, please do share. Also, if the fans in a case are a bit loud, I'm fine with replacing all of them to be quieter.
Budget really isn't a problem. I'm just looking for a recommendation for the motherboard, case, and cooling solution.
