not big a update but bought a Fractel design XL R2, an amazing case to after it being built. But a horrid case to build in, with one arm. (power supply mounting is terrible). the reason for so many cables on show is no SSD caddies without the drive cahges going to pick up some 3M tape soon!
Anyway Its now totally silent measuring around 10db outside the case.
Also you may notice a 980 is missing sold 1, & the other is being give to its new owner when my 1080 SLI Arrives, Also need to get a 3rd card.
Nvidia 0db + Displayport recommendations?
tested overwatch in 4K 100fps in game 60-70 in menus/victory screen with 980 SLI

Looks awesome man I am so insanely jealous..
You're definitely needing a log burning stove in there, even with the air con heating option
Was staying in a cabin in the woods in the north of Scotland last week. It had a log burning stove and a fire pit outside. Quite amazing how much it adds to the ambience of the room. Back home I'm feeling the withdrawals of not getting to light and sit by a fire 
I would love to do this myself some day..

Smogsy - just a quick one as you recommended using MDPE tubing to case the internet cable running outside to keep the elements off it.
Will 20mm be wide enough or did u go fir the 25mm? Also is there any risk of chill damage in the winter with freezibg etc?

How do you like the set up, take it it is two 24'' you have on either side ? I have a similar setup but one of them is in Portrait view, makes it easier if you have several smaller apps up and running while gaming on the widescreen (in my opinion that is)
You have an awesome mancave, very nicely done and got to be nice to be there when wanting some quality gametime on your hands
