    But did you know the MM case I ordered has 11x 120mm mounts?
    (Duality front with Horizon back)

    6 in Front for the RAD's
    2 on Top
    3 in Back

    So the in/out ratio is 6:5

    Does anybody know, if the above suggestion is a good idea?

    So this:
    Airflow Outtake:
    6 Fans in front (rads)

    Airflow Intake:
    2 Fans on top
    3 Fans in back

    Why I think it's a good idea:
    The front doesn't need dustfilters, which I think are not so decorative. I rather see nice Led Fans and Fan Grills.
    On top, the 2 fans will blow cool air right on the motherboard.
    In back 2 fans will suck cool air in the case, under the motherboard.
    1 Fan in back will blow over the motherboard.

    I'm not an airflow specialist, so I hope you can give me some advise

    Watercooling setup arrived!!!
    I've bought some distilled water and 2 cheapass waterpumps to test the setup.
    It's a bummer I received the EK-Asus 1 Acetal set (I ordered the Acrylic), so I can't test the mobo set

    But everything else I can, see the pics:

    Can't give any updates this week.

    Mountainmods STILL haven't shipped my case -_-
    They say it'll ship this monday probably -_-...

    And after shipment, it'll take another 5 days to arrive at my home...

    AND Aquatuning.de made a mistake with my order.
    I wanted the EK-Asus Mobo set Acrylic, but they sent me the Acetal version -_-
    So I have to sent the Acetal back and have to wait for the Acryl.
    BUT Aquatuning.de have not answered my questions/emails for the last 5 days :S
    It's like now I've paid 800 euro's for the order (I even paid 10 euro as "tip"), I'm not getting any support anymore :S
    Not quite happy here if you know what I mean...

    Get ready to wait on that case... I finally got mine yesterday, but it took a while.

    Just make sure you call and remind them that you placed an order every once in a while. Seems like they'll forget about you if you don't remind them!

    Good luck with Aquatuning.

    Your fan/airflow thinking sounds pretty right. Good air flow front and back of the board really helps with all 680i boards.

    I'm now doubting about the airflow, because I forgot the PSU.
    That one is an outtake too ofcourse.

    So now it's like:
    Outtake:
    6 in Front for the RADs
    1 in back from PSU
    -
    7

    Intake
    2 on Top
    3 in Back
    -
    5

    7:5

    Hmmm...

    Updates:

    - Still don't know what to do with the airflow/fan configuration...

    - MM still not shipped my case, also not answering my emails last couple of days...

    - Sent back the Acetal Mobo set to Aquatuning, they'll sent me the Acryl as soon as the Acetal are delivered at their firm.

    - Updated my Striker Extreme BIOS to 1303 with succes

    - Waiting.... waiting... sigh...

    Just a friendly word of advice. I hope the condensation has dried up completely. Don't let that condensation linger, especially on those acrylic see-through blocks. That's the beginning of algae growth. Just helping. Nice job so far.

    You're right!

    The condensation is still there
