Anyways but yeah maybe look at the P35 if you don't need SLI

this hardware sounds good, watercooling? why? a nice well ventilated case with good fans and heatsinks works just fine, no leaks and no refills. I use the coolermaster stacker 830 case and have better temps than friends do with their expensive water rigs that require alot of maintenance. Even with a water cooled rig you need good fans and ventilation for the motherboard components, the coolermaster stacker 830 is great for this. Invest in a good case!!
 
I have been watercooling for 6 years. I don't intend to quit now.

... and I guarantee you that your temps with air will never be anywhere near mine.
 
I have the exact same setup and I LOVE it. I have not had one single heat issue yet. Not to mention that this computer is so freaking fast it is unbelieveable!!
