So I am building a new a PC, and I need some advice on my cooling decision as of far.
The setup so far is as follows:

ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 2.66GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Processor Model BX80601920 - Retail

OCZ XMP Ready Series 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Low Voltage Desktop Memory Model OCZ3X1600LV6GK - Retail x 2

BFG Tech BFGEGTX2951792E GeForce GTX 295 1792MB 896 (448 x 2)-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video ... - Retail x 2

Fujitsu MBA3300 MBA3147RC 147GB 15000 RPM Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 3.5" Internal Hard Drive - OEM x 2 (RAID 0)

Seagate Barracuda ES.2 ST3750330NS 750GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive - OEM (for storing backup image of SAS drives)

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3500630AS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive - OEM x 5 (RAID 6)

areca ARC-1231ML-2G PCI Express SATA II Controller Card - Retail

areca ARC-6120 Full Height Battery Backup Unit - Retail

MASSCOOL SYTRIN Kuformula SHF1 Ultra HDD Cooler – BK - Retail

Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 120mm SSO CPU Cooler - Retail

SILVERSTONE TJ07-BW Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail

Rexus NMB-MAT (Panaflo) 120mm Case Fan - Retail x 4

Rexus NMB-MAT (Panaflo) 92mm Case Fan - Retail x2

Would the case and new fans be adequate cooling for the parts above.
 
That case has very good HDD cooling so nothing to worry about their cooling...
But main chamber could use additional intake, two of those cards will produce 150W of heat just for sitting there and their coolers aren't fully exhausting.
