I made a thread a while ago asking for ideas so I would like to thank every one that contributed; I finished my project and wanted to post some pictures. I moved the PSU to the spot where the DVD/Blue ray drives go, and I put an exhaust fan in front of the psu help push out any warm air from the psu. At first I had my blue ray player next to the psu, but it seemed to get too hot in that area, so I left my sata cord, and power cord there if I ever need to use it which I rarely do. I got my swiftech 220 rad sitting at the bottom of the HAF where there is fresh supply of cool air to intake, and one I have an exhaust fan to take out the warm air/fill in the gap. At the top of the case I have a swiftech 320rad with six Coolermaster R4 pulling air into the case.
I am pretty happy with the results so far. I have two temp sensors one in the case, and one outside of the case. There is only about a 1-2c difference from the ambient temp to the case temp when running prime/benching. The idle on the gpus is around 29-30 at stock speeds when running a 3dvantage it gets around 42c. I oced the cards to 1000/1300 and the top temp was 50c. oced my my cpu to 4.0 and I have around 7-8DT under full load. When I oced to 4.4 for 10mins it is about 10DT, so I am happy. I will get some GPU/CPUZ screen shots up soon I am just at work.
