HAF XB 980tix2, red everywhere!

I'm moving to 5760x1080p 144hz, from a single 1080p 144hz monitor. and my single 980ti in a mitx won't be able to cut it. So, i've ordered a haf xb case. another 980ti, and a new motherboard. When it arrives in a week i'll build and post pics :).

I have a concern though. The HAF XB supports PSU's up to 180mm. Mine is 190mm. I've seen pics of people putting larger psu's in there. but having to remove the hot-swap thingy to make it fit. i'll just hope for the best.

This is what it will contain when it is finished:

 

Case:                        HAF XB evo (window, not mesh on top)

storage:                    2x240gb SSD's in raid, a single 120gb ssd. and a 3TB HDD

PSU     :                    Cooler master v1200, 1200w plut platinum PSU

GPU    :                     2x MSI gtx 980 ti gaming 6g in SLI

RAM    :                    4x4 gb 2400mhz hyperx Savage.

Motherboard:           Asus z97-pro gamer

CPU:                        i5 4690k 

CPU cooler:             Fractal design kelvin s24, 240mm AIO

A dvd writer

Some red LED's (because fancy leds makes your computor go faster)

i'll be using noctua NT-h1 cooling paste and in the future paint the case abit more red.

 

Here is the link to the build i did of the MITX a few weeks ago i'll be salvaging parts from:
