Im planning a LAN party build and would like to know if there's anything wrong with my planning. (Prices are adjusted manually for microcenter and eBay sales.)

My main concerns are with overclockability given the limited airflow. Any suggestions are appreciated.

If you are concerned with overclocking then get an i7 6700 or i7 7700

Save you some bucks there

Rest looks well planed

Here is how L9i does on load

Can reach up to 96 overclocked load according to this page http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/noctua_nhl9i/4.htm

That cooler is barely rated for the processor (Cooler = 95W TDP, CPU = 91W TDP), so you won't be overclocking on that. Noctua has another low-profile cooler that's beefier and you could probably squeeze some overclocking, but it makes working on the system stupidly hard if you ever need to poke at the motherboard again.

Are there any itx cases that are still small but allow a standard cooler?

Any of the cube style cases like the Fractal Node 304, Corsair 250D, or Bitfenix Prodigy.

 

But you may as well go mATX at that point.
