Nice Rig Sam. Got nearly the same components.
Just a question: Are the 2 gb vram of the graphics cards enough for Nvidia-Surround? I have some concerns about it.
I'm asking, because I plan to sell my Samsung S27A750D for three Samsung S23A700D's to run them in 5760x1080.
Games like Call of Duty or Fifa should be no problem for my two cards, but I doubt that I can run TES: Skyrim with Mods on full details.
Can you tell me please, if you got some information for me?
Best regards

Sam, I also changed out the stock Corsair paste (which is Dow-Corning) with Noctua NT-H1 and got a new tube, if old it gets hard and lumpy, I threw one that was half full away, when its new is should be smooth out of the syringe.
Moving colder room air directly into and thru your H100 radiator will most likely give you lower CPU temps than moving the warmer chassis air rising from your video cards into the H100. One last thing, might sound a little bit anal, but I had an Air Conditioning vent placed over the desk in the office, so in the summer, the refrigerated air moves directly down on the top of my chassis and is pulled into the H100, so that might explain my temps being a bit lower.
Your rig looks great man!:)

You can drop your CPU temps by another 6 degrees Sam, if you position your desk under a large air conditioning vent and position the directionals so the refrigerated air is blowing right down on your H100, but it only works when the air is ON, but it runs all the time in the Florida summer. hahaha. Glad you like the results man.:p

In this video, Marshall says the PLX chip is bypassed when running two video cards or less. With my single graphics card in slot number 2 the PLX has a temp of 53C-54C, at idle. Maybe we have to wait for a bios update for the PLX bypass to take effect...
