Took a good part of three months to learn my way around in the PC world, but I'm finally done.
I have about 3k in everything just ff the top of my head.
x3 Asus 144 hz 1ms 24" screens
x3 Asus GTX 770 oc GPUs
Asus Crosshair formula Z MB
AMD FX8350 CPU @ 4.5 GHZ
Corsair 4GB x4 RAM 2133 mhz
Corsair AX 1200w PSU
Cosmos II XL case
Antec Kuhler water CPU cooler
I had it all in a Antec 900 case but once I started using the three screen @ 5970 x 1080p, the cards started shooting to 90 degrees c... I removed the PSU and ran it out outside the box and the temps came down a little. Next, I hooked a box fan up to an open air case to see if there was any way I could keep it cool with air. It stayed under 75 degrees so I knew I had to have turbulence inside the case not just airflow and room. That's the only reason I upgraded to the cosmos case today.
It was intimidating moving to the cosmos but once I got all the unnecessary LED cables out of the way, it was straight forward.
Kinda cool it opens like a hood.
This is how I solved my cooling problem. 14 fan monstrosity... Its loud but not really too bad. There's a 3500rpm 140mm fan .5 inch away from the GPU's coolers on its side and a 120mm 2000 rpm fan backed up by two others right in front of them.
After testing it, It scored 49th over all in the world in 3dmark extreme settings x3 GPU category beating out many titan SLI setups but a lot of 680's up there too.

I enjoyed learning something new and will not have to pay for repair techs anymore at least!
And thanks to the board members whos Imput helped me out! Roliath! Tx Redneck!
