    If your good with metal or wood you can make a PSU shroud and screw it into place. Acrylic also works well for this. As for the cooler cables, try run them to the top of the board and out the bottom.

    Open the sides and see if the fans even run, if they dont then check the cables like @Warning kinda suggested.

    EBay is safer but it takes commission and if you use PayPal it also takes commission. I believe EBay is 12-13% and PayPal is 3%.

    VR never really caught my eye. It's expensive both computer and gear wise, you need a fairly open room and it has caused some issues with people's eyes because of the screens being to close. If I got given one for free I would probably just sell it and use the funds to upgrade my setup for a more enjoyable experience. I prefer to use my monitor for my entertainment.
    I don't think it's going to fail as bad as 3D but I don't think it's going to be very successful.

    It's not really used for the build but more to maintain it. A lot of people use a can of compressed air which cost around $14 AUD where I live. Instead, I use a paint brush and a hairdryer to remove dust. It works great and it hasn't damaged anything.

    As I forgot to post some last night 

    Well, here's some images for today then. Waiting on several parts from EKWB, the rest of the fans, and some other small stuff. I'll order the CPU soon, get it running, and then I'll look into buying a GTX 980, testing it, and adding it in.

    A quick over-view of some shots of the build so far. I've basically only have like... 60% of the parts or so in at the moment.

    As you can see, a 272mm wide motherboard is an extremely tight fit, but is possible, despite Phanteks only saying up to 264mm wide E-ATX boards.























    Here's where we get into some compatibility pictures.

    To make the ASUS Rampage V Edition 10 motherboard fit, I had to remove the backplate and side mounted LED's, sadly. At least, this was the solution without modding the case. I also insulated the back of the motherboard with some electrical tape, which I'll document later on.




    Radiator clearance is very limited when using two 360mm radiators. I had to "cheat" to mount the top 360mm radiator (EK SE 360, 360*26mm) which is another thing I'll document later on. The front radiator will be an EK PE 360 (360*38mm), but for this to fit the inlets on the radiator must be at the bottom of the case.



    I used my EK PE 240 to kind of get an idea and test-fit my pump/reservoir combo. It will work pretty well.

    It was originally a "budget oriented build"  I had a Sandy Bridge setup for 5 years and never really over clocked it. So i went with the 6500 this time.
