Okay so i'm buying the CFI Boreallight w/ USB 3.0, EZ Swap HDD, 2x 120mm & 1x 140mm fans, Side Panel Window.

And i'm also buying Corsair Hydro Series H60 High Performance Liquid Cooling System 120MM Radiator & Fan (All Venom OC Certified) (Push Pull) (Dual enermax enlobal silent high performance 120 mm fans)

Is that enough cooling for my computer???
Computer:
-Intel® Core™ i5-4690K
-ASUS MAXIMUS VII RANGER ATX
-8GB (4GBx2) DDR3/1866MHz Dual Channel Memory (ADATA XPG V2)
-AMD Radeon R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 PCIe 3.0 x16 Video Card (Single Card)
-2TB (2TBx1) SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 64MB Cache 7200RPM HDD (Single Drive)

You could skip the liquid-cooling altogether, if you want to. Just get a good CPU air-cooler, and that should be enough, unless you plan on an extreme CPU overclock. In that case, I would get a completely custom water-cooling kit instead.

If you do get the liquid-cooler, you should get radiator fans, not Enermax case fans. The fan that comes with the H60 will be better than those. Also, configuring the radiator in pull will be enough:

Why do you want such a monstrously humongous case? (No offense!) That case doesn't even have very good radiator options. You could always get one of these:
Rosewill BLACKHAWK
ENERMAX iVektor Black
Corsair Carbide Series...

Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01
NZXT Phantom 410
Corsair Obsidian Series 450D Black

Of course, there are many more options for smaller cases (if you can call mid-towers small). You could always add orange lights, LED fans, etc. if you want orange. You only need a full tower case if you want three or four graphics cards, or if you need to install giant radiators.
