Looks like a great setup. You might compare reviews for the H80 vs the H100. Some have found the single fan H80 cools better.

Post up some pics of the build.

will do, will check out those reviews also

Notice I said AMD.

Hmmm, I guess there is Quad-channel memory after all
ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Motherboards- ASUS P9X79 DELUXE

but does it really exist... alot of people online say there is no such thing, and that its just a marketing term. i kndof knew it was, i had never heard the term till i heard someone else use it, and it snowballed, but people online say its just a prettier way of saying 4 slots

Calling the memory quad channel is marketing, but the new socket 2011 CPU's do support running quad channel,

Intel® Core

Of course it will cost you close to $1000.00 for the motherboard and CPU,
