I really like the cooler but not sure if it would be compatible with the case, also is it worth the extra money for a gtx 980 over the 970?
 
Hi

What colour scheme are you going for ? as you have a bit of a mix of colours going on there :D

The Raijintek will fit in the H440 as it is just a standard 240mm radiator. It will fit fine in the roof.

I don't think the 980 is worth the extra.
 
I was going for a blue scheme, I will make sure everything is the correct colour when ordering just mocked up this with the parts i was planning
 
Blue/Black

You can easily overclock the cpu yourself as it is cheaper that way.

The Gigabyte card is all Black, and it has a Blue LED Windforce logo.

Blue/Black MSI Motherboard which will run SLI.

Avexir Ram has Blue LED lights.

The Bitfenix LED strip will illuminate your case a bit more. You could swap it for a 'White' LED strip so that it doesn't overpower the other led lighting.

The Aerocool DS fans look really nice, and they have LED lights.

The CableMod cables will replace the standard EVGA ones. They are Black/Blue to match.

The EVGA psu is big enough in case you want to SLI later on.
 
I will be taking my hardrives, disk drive and ram even though the motherboard bundle comes with ram, my brother will probably take it.

The overclocked cpu was the main reason i was buying the bundle as i have never done it myself but if it is easy enough to do buying the components separately makes more sence.
