Just a little update:
Swapped out the 2 antec kuhlers for a single cpu+gpu combo unit from asetek (760gc)
No more protruding fan. Lower temps. Extremely satisfied.
Big thanks to Zack from asetek for the trouble shooting and quick shipping.

Here are two more Evercool fans (ignore the SilenX)

I have the medium speed evercool fan from this page: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=36_1128_394&zenid=c7e15edaf1cbe75b4e27c3ed02aef8c4
I currently have it hooked up with a voltage adapter so it's pretty quiet. Much quieter than stock because the stock...
Thanks!
Those were much better options but I didn't want to cut an extra slot. The Q07 had only 1 slot and I managed to fit the 570 because all the outputs were on one slot. A single slot adapter bracket worked for me in this case.

Hi all, just thought I start a build log to show/keep track of my progress on this build.
Build Summary
I wanted something that can sit on my small desk and not take up much room. Most cases that are of similar volume are longer than they are...
Yes, I can confirm this because I have 1 HD + 1 optical connected to the same sata cable. I believe it is less of a stretch if you have the psu fan facing outward, but I have done it both ways before without issues.
I have 1 HDD with an optical. It's quite a stretch. it _might_ work for two drives, but it was already hard enough stretching it for 1 drive. It also depends how your PSU is oriented... fan facing out or in, since the cables will either be on top or bottom.
Just my opinion on this matter...
I have an i3 with a 5770, which draws no where near 450watts (I have the non modular version), and I've noticed that the fan ramps up.
I realized that this was because the poor little guy was intake-ing all the hot air inside my case. Ever since I gave it...
If the 92mm fan are the ones Fractal Design have on their website, I think it's not going to be enough, since they are rated at around 20-25cfm... That number is going to drop because you have dust filters on front.
