Gratz mate, I'm going to get a new build too but sadly can't afford a i7 build, how much did yours set you back?

that case has an interesting airflow design, first case i have seen with such a mobo layout.

fairly sound theoretically since heat rises, just wondering about air intakes

any temps?

You Have to post pictures of this while building and when finished.

The Raven looks awesome.
