We've already had to make a couple of changes, but that's not so bad.

I had a buddy at work who I was hoping would be able to get me a discount on a 4770K ($115), but that seems to have fallen through.  I switched out the LED fans for a couple with some better CFM.  Yes, I know Noctua has badass fans, I'm not outfitting the whole case just yet.  I stuck with the Hyper 212 EVO because I just really like air cooling.  Once I can afford a proper liquid cooling solution, I'll switch.
