Case: Corsair Air 540
Motherboard: Looking for suggestions / MSI power preferable / i7 4770k
CPU Cooler: Kraken x60


I'm planning a build for a Corsair Air 540. It will incorporate an intel i7 4770k, I'm currently looking at MSI power boards. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I want to mount the kraken x60 radiator at the front of the Air 540. I suppose the fans would be used as intake. I would like the replace the stock fans of the kraken x60 with 2 akasa viper 140mm fans. I would also like to use an akasa viper 140mm fan in the rear of the case. I'm considering mounting two 140mm akasa fans at the top also.

My questions is as to what mobo would support these many fans and how I could tell? Also, how would the intake / exhaust work with such a setup?

Any suggestions and general advise would be much appreciated. Thanks!!
