I the only thing I notice is

- If you dropped the sabertooth and went for the z68-v-pro, you might be able to afford the gtx580? Unless there are reasons why you want the sabertooth?

Isn't the only diff in those two motherboards a couple i/o changes and not having the sabertooth gets rid of that crappy plastic? People say thermal armour on the mobo is just a waste of time

Ew, first time i just seen it, it's looks awful!..But would be great if you where building a gaming rig yourself for the first time...and about the NZXT, I think it's only one or two fans you have to instal yourself. and yes the HAF-X is nice aswell but is only needed for over-clocking.

Try the regular version of the mobo? BTW I love the HAF and I will overclock. After looking everywhere, PCS is the cheapest place in the UK to get a computer custom built - cheaper than doing it by yourself. Awesome but if there was an all stock 50% off sale I would be getting a quad SLI..... I can dream

PCS are good because they only sell the best for the right price. BUT they have such a small selection, They should at least put a few more things in and they don't even have razer keyboards,gaming mouse....i would of thought they'd be selling Asus monitor's aswell.

Would you really notice the difference? Why dont you do it on old desktops or something from ebay, some old ones are like £20, install a good cooler and just go all the way :) then do it again, again and again just buy cheap processors to put back in them after, putting the cooler into each project, if i had the money to do it i probably would :)
