    looks fine, the armor is quite roomy, i have. but mine is quite filled with gtx in sli. question is how are you going to mount the rad? i have a bracket on mine which allows me to mount 3.5 drives and 2X120mm fans which i use to mount my old rad. which can easily mount up to a 480gtx taking that you would only have 1 slot for a ROM. if you mount your PA120.2 in there youll be fine, just need to fab up a mount which is quite easy you can just base the mounts off the 5.25 screw points. i dont suggest using the HD cage on top, i thought it was a good idea, but it just chokes my PSU and made cable managing a little harder. i know my current setup isnt WC but was previously and am ordering new parts to drop in again but this is how my system look with decent wire management

    edit:

    yea Martins rig is a great example of just how room the armor is lol

    id go with a 240gtx, after using it once id never change, the fact that it has a really high FPI has sold me forever. the thing i think you could save on is the RES, the EK res are beautiful and ive always wanted one but its just too darn expensive. i love DD fillports and thats all ive gone with. for 12 bucks and a 1 dollar T you good to go compared to 50 + maintenance and installation

    question what kind of hardware are you planning to run? i dont know if a 120.2 would be able to handle CPU + GPU + NB with OC. you might want to go bigger, really depends on your hardware, and i really dont think you need to WC your NB.

    your block choose are good, there all generally free flowing, so your fine there. as for your bay question, you could always run your tubes below if you build a mount you could still have all your bays just have your rad externally mounted in front. i had to do that before when i had a push pull on my 360gts xflow what was nice is that everything extrude out the center without touching the wings so i had a nice look to it. but again with a 360 it takes up alot of space which i generally dont care, im thinking off adding a drive but im only using one rom. im going to be taking out the whole 3.5 + power and restart bay tray to clear out some room, ill relocate those to somewhere more convenient
