I want to buy another gtx 770, the front fan is the intake fan, i have to 120 corsair quiet editions on the top as exhaust and one stock fan in the back as exhaust too. What should i do to make the cooling maximum at a good price? Also any tips on how else I should do the air circulation in my case?

Just take one of the top fans and put it in the bottom

Nice profile pic! :D

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

So put it between the psu and at the bottom of the two graphics cards?

Yes, mainly for positive air pressure

Paul, to do the best cooling possible, in my opinion, I would suggest having positive airflow, but your case is a negative airflow design. You only have one 200mm fan as intake, so it limits maximum cooling. You could always convert your windowed side panel to that mesh design allowing you to install 4 additional fans. Does Noctua provide 200mm fans?

Would you recommend water cooling for it? I have this http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=84358. Also http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=87431&vpn=5060175584564&manufacture=XSPC%20Asia%20Co%2E%20Ltd%2E&promoid=1198 would that be good for two gtx 770, they are sli.

You really don't need to go to any extreme measures to use SLI. You have good airflow as it is, although you may want to buy a extra intake fan just for positive pressure, other than that you will be fine with your current setup.
