Thanks guys yeah I plan to sli in the future so I will keep the PSU, should I cut back on the HDD to get a SSD? Or switch to mid-tower?

Also when the pc is complete and constructed will I need a wifi network adapter to connect to my wifi network? How does that work?

Thx

I have a Define R4. I couldn't recommend it more. It's completely silent and keeps everything a good 5c cooler than my NZXT Guardian case. A stunner too.
