I reduced the price a little by changing a few things. #1 I changed the power supply. You don't need a plat power supply. You are paying 60+ dollars over what you need to for your system. I also changed out the cooler. Why because currently AIO solutions out perform any air cooler on the market. I went with the h105 because it comes with a thicker radiator which means more thermal space. It doesn't come with noctua fans but you can always purchase nf-f12's or sp120's. I changed the ram to kingston fury ram you can get red black red or blue w.e you want but I think you should get a color that mixes well with your ROG board just my personal opinion.
Stick to one 780Ti. If you end up running more then one screen for example a surround 3-4 screens or a resolution over 1440p then it may be fine to go with a SLi setup but if you are running on a single 1080p panel please dont buy more then one it will be a waste.

Personally I like the look of the inside of the case the layout that is. However, you get no dust filters what so ever which may make the dust thing an issue if you don't have canned air or something else to eliminate the dust.
Maybe something like the arc midi r2 would be more of what you are after. and then the Fractal Design Define R4 or XL for full tower if you wanted more of a silent setup. In any case though for Airflow you would want optimized fans if you really care about cooling. I know linus from LTT he tends to swing towards the NF-F12's for all the fan slots however you could always go the radiator route with those and maybe af140's/120's depending on the case of course.
