Looks like you have the pieces neccesary for a nice machine, good choice on the ram too! I have the same kit and it does up to about 2100 at cas 8 on 1.6v in my UD5.
I literally bought it because the colors match the motherboard hahaha. I was going to get some 1600 stuff, but then I also realized I'll probably be sporting a 230~ bclk if I am lucky, so faster RAM would benefit me greatly. But the main reason was that color combo, good job Corsair, you know your paints!![]()

Alright, good news! My fittings came today and are the correct ones. I'm also going to my cousins tomorrow (Thursday) to build the basement of the case and get the rad + pump + hdd-cage screwed down. So I should have it all up and running tomorrow night! I wont have high quality pictures for you guys that soon though, as I will need to do some detailing work on it before getting my uncle to stop by and photograph it all.
Today I finished up the last of the odd-jobs and little things. A lot of the parts in the basement, like the Noctua fans and silver metal parts, showed through the lower black screen, and I didn't like the look of that at all. So I used some cheap paint on them in the visible parts, and now you can't see anything at all.
I also came up with a nice plan for my 5.25" bay bars. I am going to cut up the felt Corsair PSU bag into a rectangle and place it across the opening on the inside. I was originally going to paint these black, but then I thought hanging a black curtain of sorts across it would better hide that area of my case. And then I saw this bag and I came up with this new plan. I think it's a creative use of the felt bag, you can never have too much Corsair logo, and hopefully it looks good too!
