If you do a custom loop and use the 350D I would strongly recommend cutting out the drive bays. With this you can have a 360 and a 240 rad, which would be more ideal for 2 GPUS and a CPU in one loop. Good luck with the build!

Good idea, I am not to much into case modding but I might go to NCIX for them to help me with the build, or a geeksquad place.

Don't even bother, learning how to build a pc/mod cases is pretty easy. Worst case you make a mistake, those do happen sometimes, and you can just try again.

 

Just don't lick your 4790k or something

 

Edit: Feel free to lick your heatsink, it'll taste funny but it won't hurt nothing
