Even for an air cooled setup it's got tons of fans doesn't it?
I saw the video, I liked the pivoting fans for the Hard drives, but I hate the side windows like that. Using an Azza Hurrican, by the time I get a new case I might look at the 810.
I'd like to take a moment to thank Marest for his sample builds, which helped this first time builder put together an awesome "core" machine (with a little help from my brother and a 12 pack). Also I'd just like to say that this computer forum is a pretty cool place in general; I mostly just lurk here but I've learned quite a bit from it.

So I'm planning a build to have here. I'm that sufficiently high level of crazy, yes.
Presently, the planned build goes along the lines of this:
P8Z77 Deluxe (for double antenna, shinier heatsinks, buttons & debug LED)
Intel i5 2500k
Corsair Dominator 16GB (4x4GB)
EVGA GTX 680
Corsair Force 3 240GB
Corsair AX 750
Corsair 600T
...that's a lot of Corsair, but not really intentional.
As far as picture goes...

drunken drop the 2500k and board and do an EVGA LGA 2011 xeon board with 2 $210 xeons would be sexy.
Xeon is pointless for gaming. And the evga srx has pink expansion slots.
