Dont think I like the idea of no side fan on the Silverstone. Is the HAF a good choice?

Total : £297.95 (includes shipping : FREE).
And Im waiting on my Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z from the MM
Now I know Im taking a chance with the ram and the 612s, as in the cooler may not clear the Ram but I got the ram for a good price ( also from the MM ) and my plan is if it doesnt fit I will TRY and remove the heat spreaders?
Im also slightly weary of putting my SLi'd GTX 460's in the Maximus but if it doesnt work out I will just sell it on and look for another Mobo.
Big thanks to all who offered advice on this. Especially Stulid of course who asual was a great help and a font of knowledge
