Sorry - all that gear, in a huge 900D and just a H100i? Lot of wasted space. Could save a lot of money and go with a much more conservative but just as nice case.

Nice rig, but one thing - you may want to switch the H100i to a swiftech 220.

FX-4100 @4.5ghz // Club3d 7870 @1240 mhz // Sabertooth 990fx // 8GB Vengance Ram

OCX 120GB SSD // Segate Barracuda 2tb HDD // XFX 850 Watt PSU // H80i

That was just a quick run down of it, properly going to change some things

Because you can expand a H220 to add additional radiators and waterblocks, essentially adding your Titan to the loop, as the Titan benefits greatly by being watercooled as GPU Boost 2.0 scales on heat instead of power.

I don't plan to add the titans to the loop but I haven't bought them yet, I'm going to wait until Nvidia bring out the 700 series and see how they perform and then make my mind up :)

This build seems a bit "unrealistic". Fake, basically. It does not seem you did much research in this build and it felt like you put "expensive" parts together. I agree with Whaler, a lot of money wasted with the 900D. You could have went with something cheaper. I get if your watercooling, but you're not. An AX1200i would also be kind of overkill for a system like this.

One thing what do you mean by "Green" beast??? as the theme going to be green lighting / case / etc,

looks a very high spec, must cost a lot to build this system.

got to love Asus components

Yer sorry for the slow reply but yer as iWingers said the swifttech allows for putting more components in the loop - also the swifttech performs better than the h-100 in terms of temps. But which ever one you get I would recomend getting the noctua nf-f12 / 14's ( I have them on my h-80i and they are amazing)
