Looks good to me. I'm personally not too picky when it comes down to things, if it works and runs what I want it to run I call it a success. The case is going to look sick, I considered picking up the H440 but at the time it wasn't out yet lol. I have the Asus Maximus Hero VI and it's been nothing but perfect. I've had no issues with it or anything, so I'm going to go ahead and say that the VII is going to be better in some aspects. I personally have the i7-4770k and not the 4790k, at the time it wasn't out yet but from what I've read, and heard from friends it's highly recommended. Your temporary cooler should be fine, a friend of my ran his 212 for awhile until he got a closed loop cooler.

All in all, I don't see anything wrong.

Look at this:
GPU's demensions are: Card size: L= 312mm, W= 129mm, H= 43mm
and the case says: GPU Clearance: With HDD Cage: 294mm
GPU Clearance: Without HDD Cage: 406.2mm

the other components look good from me...
very nice case Happy

If you want to use the HDD Cage, they will not fit in my opinion...
It is possible to remove the HDD Cage and so the GPU will fit...

So it looks like you can remove like 2 of the HDD holders and it will fit:

Guys I'm probably changing the case to a phanteks enthoo pro! The flexibility of the case is just incredible *---* And the options for custom watercooling are big either Happy . I dont really like the aspect of it , flat black with a bit of a brushed aluminium at the front but I'll probably mod it and paint it all red cuz red it's a cool color in my opinion :p

Well first off. Unless your good with tools and measurement and have the valueable virtue of patience custom watercooling isnt for you. Its expensive water/coolant has to be replaced, filters need cleaned and you must be aware of leaks. Thats before we even get to the complicated part of building the loop itself, i also have a enthoo pro its a wonderful case
