I'm looking to buy a new computer since my old one died on me.
Firstly, the basics of what I'm looking for. 1440p gaming with a good (60+) FPS even on the latest games, with good cooling. No 4k, I'm not willing to go there until we get GPUs that can actually run 4k games.
Money isn't a big issue, though I'm not exactly looking forward to paying over $3,5k.
I have all neccessary peripherals, so no need for any of those.

That's what I've been eyeing on for now, I hope the link works.
I tried to do my due diligence by looking up quite a bit of information about parts, but eventually there comes a time when you have to ask your betters for help.
I have just a few questions about my previously-linked build that I need answers to. Any and all other input is welcome, too.
Such as, exactly how many fans can you stuff inside a Corsair 760T case, and how many do I realistically need? Should I go with Stock fans or something else, like the Antec TrueQuiets? (I do love a quiet computer.) And is the trade-off in cooling between "normal" and "quiet" fans exceptionally large?
Then comes the question of my GPU of choice, 980TI EVGA Hybrid version (well, two of them).
Is the hybrid cooling worth the extra bucks, and can I fit two of them inside my case easily and without any serious hassle? The extra radiator+fan combo looks like it takes a lot of space, so I'm wondering if the laws of nature don't impede my plans.
Lastly, about the new Samsung 950 M.2 SSD; Since it's a new and wildly different form of storage, does it have any serious stability problems and the like? Or might I be better off going with an older type of SSD, such as the 850 EVO? Slow but steady, as it were.
Oh and since I chose the 950 M.2 for my SSD, I get a "The motherboard M.2 slot #0 shares bandwidth with a SATA Express port. When the M.2 slot is populated, one SATA Express port is disabled." notification in Parts picker. Is it going to be an issue for me?
