Will this system work?

[organ_pleasin]

Build:

i5 4460 3.2GHz

Noctua NHD15

Msi z87i gaming

Kingston savage 8gb ram

Asus gtx980 strix

Phanteks enthoo evolv

Silverstone strider gold 650W

notes:

I am looking to take the fans that come included with the NH-D15 as front mounted fans, and have the heat-sink passively cooled. Its for gaming at (maybe) higher demands.

Reasoning:

fans look ugly, and want a better looking system. do you recommended doing this, or getting a different heat-sink and buying the fans after?

P.S.

I don't mind the look of the heat-sink if performance was compromised.

Also I would appreciate it if feedback in general is given(excluding the storage choice), as i would like to also down the price a tad if possible. Keep in mind that I'm an Australian citizen, and would prefer parts from cplonline or PCcase gear.

I cant see the link, doesnt exist...

If you mount the NH-D15 horizontally (with the large face upwards) it should work, even without fans...

I have edited to show the parts, do you think that still the case, if not what do you think?

Unless you will upgrade your cpu and overclock it (with the 4460 you cant) you dont need a z87 board, just get an h87 or sth similar ^^

As for the GPU, some say that ASUS' have coil whine (my 780 does, in fact) so i'd go with Gigabyte's or EVGA/MSI...
