Hello everyone, this is my first post and I was wondering if anyone could suggest a suitable motherboard for my setup.
Processor-Intel i7 4770k
Graphics Card- 2 Nvidia 670 in SLI
2 8GB Ram (Future upgrade to 4 8GB Ram)
I would like to run 4 displays in a flipped T shape. (3 in a row for gaming and one on top)
I would be using a SSD for my boot drive and a HDD for storage which I would add more of in the future.

I would like to play all upcoming title in Ultra such as ROME 2 Total War, Battlefield 4 and others with 3 displays.

Also, I do a lot of heavy video and photo editing which my current computer can just not handle. I use everything in CS6.

Can I also get a suggestion for a case? I would like to have a white one :).

Also, anyone has any idea what stand I can use for the top display?.

I would also like to enquire on how I can make my PC build extremely quiet. I would love to leave the computer overnight to convert videos or download things and would like the computer to be nearly silent if possible. Do I do this by replacing the fans that come with the case? If so, which fans should I instead use?

Lastly, if anyone picked up any compatibility issue or suggestions for better parts with better price please do share :)

Just a side note, I would be buying my parts from this store, so please refer to these prices. http://www.fuwell.com.sg/uploads/misc/Fuwell140813.pdf

Sn1992, the GTX 670 gets more FPS than a 760 and also has superb SLI scaling.

OP, for a case, you should definitely go with this above all else:

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-case-phan001wt

It's white as you wanted. It's also a Full Tower. Meaning it's one of the biggest and thus most

feature-rich and spacious cases you can get. Making it ideal for future upgradeability and whatnot too.

However you may like something from Bitfenix' lineup too. To achieve quietness, you need a case which

is built for silence, such as a Corsair 200R. Having watercooling or fans with rubber gromets helps too.

If the fans are good and there's good airflow and/or the temperatures are low, things like fans won't have to

spin as fast, thus...

Since you are looking to play games and do some heavy editing, I'd look at some of the Asus ROG mobo's. I would suggest going to Newegg and looking at their white cases, they have them in most price ranges. Then go to pcpartspicker (or a similar site) to see where you can get the best price on what you are interested in. The size of your case will be dependent on which motherboard you wind up choosing.

sorry, didn't see your part about where you will be buying from, but still, go to Newegg site to view cases you might be interested in and then choose (same for motherboard).

spin as fast, thus reducing noise. Having a good PSU (Power Supply Unit) that isn't running at maximum load also

helps keeps things quiet.
