yeah i just noticed that. well all we will need the drive bays for is a single optical drive so if needs be we could chop off the bottom of the cage like he has done

I think he also lost all space for HDDs but I haven't gone through the vid in detail.

The switch has a number of radiator options if you take one or both of the HDD cages out. You can always use a 5.25" adapter for the SSD if necessary. You should be able to get a decent 360 and a 240 in there without much more work than that. Have a look around the web, lots of examples with minimal modification.

For that sort of budget, you may want to consider some Corsair dominator and liquid cooling it.

please not; This will be spending extra money PURELY for looks, no performance gain. Just thought it's be worth a mention as, IMO, RAM blocks look amazing :D

would you say my updated spec is decent then? I decided that with two large radiators it wouldn't matter that much that they're not the 60mm thick ones

I'd get EX rads from XSPC. slimmer, and the performance difference is negligible due to the amount of raddage you have :)
 
Might be worth adding a mosfet block when building?

I know most people say that its not worth water cooling a motherboard but the Asus X79 boards do seem to run warm at the mosfet. I have the Sabertooth and I'm going to add this block when I water cool the GTX670.
 
Personally I would only bother with the mosfet block, EK make one that matches your CPU cooler which would probably look nicer?

I guess the one you have listed would be just as good though.
