I'm not good with the lingo lol. PITA?
PITA = Pain In The As..(Bottom)
also spilitters and mobo headers. But I think I know the second and third. I think I have like 4 fans directly plugged into the mobo. But the main body of those same type connections seems to all be plugged into like a central plug in area of the other side of the case. There is velcrow. I've took a picture. Some sort of large power cable seems to connect to it and go to the PSU I think.

So, you only had 1 fan plugged into each motherboard header, respectively (i.e. 1 fan powered by each motherboard fan connection)? So, no splitter (adaptor) that allowed more than 1 fan to run off one header?
The reason i ask is that you mentioned 14 fans - so was concerned you may have pushed your luck with splitters. From your pics you've run them through a couple of fan hubs connected to a molex - so they may be running full tilt if no controller(?).
What I mean about the display ports is. Ive checked a few images and as of yet can't get close to the ports of the Rog. To see if there is a white DVI cable port for my secondary screen. My first monitor is HD but the second I own is DVI cable not hd. I ll try get a better view on ports.
By HD - you mean HDMI connection (you may have DP - display port -depending on age).
You won't be using the display ports of the motherboard - your CPU nor the motherboard support onboard graphics. You will be solely dependent on the ports coming from your discrete graphics card (GPU). And that will be your GTX 670 - unless you change it - so no change in leads etc for display. And if you updated your GPU we can work round this with adaptors if required.
It really seems great value. Are we allowed to post market links? If not can I one way or another get you to give the market site/product an overlook before I plan to commit to it?
No, but it's fine to mention that you can get it cheaper elsewhere - but no names, especially links. I saw your price and Googled - i know of the site it's Czech - make of that what you will. Look at Trust pilot and decide how difficult it would be to deal with returns - as much as i can comment. If goods arrive as specced and in good order a bargain - if not then, hovno! (you'll need a translator)
Do you not like the humming? I honestly don't mind it, Im kinda one of those that wants a sound. You know like with a big car engine? Maybe that's the reason : p, although I could be wrong. I don't drive or anything haha. I just like hearing it whirl up.
A white noise addict - no harm in that - each to their own.
But, no, I like relative silence - but this is expensive, so don't force change (then again 14 fans aren't cheap.)
Things are looking good so far. I think I'm happy with the parts now. Do you know anything about pc cases? Are they like universal and have holes to accept most modern mobos? I'm not too sure how strict all these parts are which can be used with which.
Yes, your case should be fine, if you want to keep it. It's the stand off positioning that's important - the brass upright screws in the case that accept the screws that secure the motherboard. Be sure they line up to motherboard holes and remove the rest.
Is that because I'm moving from intel to the other?
Yes, AM4 won't accommodate an INTEL bracket.
The k2 uses two big fans that I forgot to mention as part of the fan count haha
Yep, both connected to motherboard?
Did you run a fan curve from the BIOS?
I have a few (One Ryzen and rest INTELs) as work from home when i can - but one will be upgraded to Zen 2, if i'm in the country in mid July - hoping i'm not needed.
The TIM had dried out - needed reapplying.
Also, if reusing that heatsink you may need to invest in some compressed air.
