Finally getting around to building my computer after so many set backs

Just want to check if this is a good build for gaming and for Folding@home (hence the i7 and 680 over i5 and 670)

Games mainly include, battlefield 3, eve online and a large mix of steam FPS's and RPG's

Keyboard is coming from another place and i currently have the mouse with my laptop

Any and all suggestions welcome, ordering the system in approx 2 weeks.

Are you planing on changing the fans on the case ? They are very quiet and it also has a fan controller built in.

not to fond of the built in fan controller and i am planning on changing all the fans apart from on the H100i, i dont need the LED's as well although you can turn them off. Plus with the Kaze master can control them separately which i like
