The price of this build is actually over what I have with degrading the processor. And are all those fans needed for low temps and silence? I would like to understand the logic of these specs. However, I did like the SSD switch so ill switching to that. Thank you for your input!

9 fans ≠ absolute silence. Also filling every fan slot doesn't mean optimal airflow and you'll be wasting your money.

Go for a Cooler Master PSU if you can live with a semi modular and stupid coloured ATX cable design.

And you could save some money by going with the NZXT S340 Case.

I really like that case but I only see a white version, is there a black version?

Of course there is a black S340. There is also Black/Red and Black/Blue.

I think white looks so clean though.

I also love the aesthetics and features of the r5 but if i can get something similar in nature with a lower price then by all means I can switch

similar in nature but what about quality? the r5 screams great build quality not saying the nzxt isnt any good but theirs also the sound dampening foam thats on the side panels int he r5 and the access to a dvd drive if you ever wish to use one.( can always use an external dvd drive)
