Im planning on doing almost the exact same build with a bigger res and wider front rad. I have been trying to think of ways to route the tubing and you have given that idea to me. Thank you.
1. I will check out some BeQuite PSUs in the future. I will probably either go with the EVGA G2 850w(EVGA 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply) or a BeQuiet Dark Power Pro 10 850w. I'm probably now gonna end up buying sleeved cable extensions because I was gonna buy the sleeved cables sold by EVGA or Corsair, but the BeQuiet CPU looks really enticing.
2. If I get a 2.5' hard drive, it probably will be a Samsung Spinpoint M8 1TB 2.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive because I have good experience with that drive.
3. I want the build to be "somewhat" silent considering my build now is very loud. But I also want performance too so being able to over clock and other things long with that. That s why there are so many fans in the system with the large CPU cooler. Basically anything is an upgrade.
4. I will use PCPartPicker for the links in the future. I actually did originally but I opted out. (sometimes I'm less intelligent)
5. Thank you for the suggestions on not only the build but being a member of the community.
