I have a 140mm fan exhausting from the roof and I am having 2 120AF Silent editions installed in the front in the morning. I am going to be upgrading my PSU to a 750W Corsair RM Series later this week when it arrives. Where should I go from there, i'm thinking of changing from the behemoth cpu cooler and going with a corsair h80i or the h100i if I can get in the roof.

Any thoughts or advice would be very much appreciated.
 
So what exactly are you wanting to upgrade? Just the CPU cooler? The H80i will fit but the h100i will not in the R3 case.

Other than that nothing really. Next Gen GPUs are being announced soon so its probably worth waiting for that so close to the release.
