Any ETA on the pump and res? Also, is 500W really enough for heavily OCing a GPU and CPU?

do you happen to know if the ACX itx cooler will fit the asus impact?  Worried only because it has daughterboards above and below the socket, whereas most itx boards only have the 1 above the socket.

nVidia overestimates power needs because they can't control and thus recommend an exact PSU for all of us to use, in addition to not knowing what our configurations are.  In this case, no pun intended, EVGA gets to play OEM and by being in control they can make more specific guarantees.  For instance, mini-ITX boards limit the types of CPUs and power phases limit how far they can be overclocked anyway.  How far can you really push the graphics card given the space constraints for cooling air/water?  It is not the PSU.  


Besides, it isn't the wattage you should focus on, focus on the amperage from the 12v line since that is what the CPU, graphics cards, drives and fans use.  The rest of the system doesn't use that much from the other voltages, so you can ignore them.
 
An all stock system of a i7-2600K (93W) and a Titan (250W) is 330W from 12v, or 27.5A.  There isn't enough room for so many drives and fans in the chassis, while EVGA's 1U rackmount PSU has 40 Amps from 12v available.  You can overclock both 30% (by power, not frequency) and still have room.  Although it you put in Ivy/Haswell, you using less power per overclock, blah blah, I'm sure you may have figured that out by now.

Will the psu in the hadron be able to handle the other parts from the 99¢ diy?

does the ACX cpu cooler work on socket 1155 jacob?
 
If so, I'm gonna grab one of those for my 2500K system when available for sale seperately (hopefully not more then $20), cause that cooler is very simalar to the rosewill rcx-zaio-92 cooler ($17) I use now on my 2600K rig which works great btw (keeps my cpu temp around 64 - 68c on the cores at 4.2Ghz)

Will the Noctua NH-D14 fit this case?

Very Very highly doubtful that it will, that cooler stretches across the entire motherboard almost and looks like it would hit the side panel of the case.
 
example picture:
 

 
It's reasons like this is why I use the rosewill cooler on mine, plenty space around the socket, clears all the ram slots, and nowhere near as tall to hit the side panel

edit: removed first question, answered by examining image of a build done in hadron,
can't even fit an h50.
 
When will the evga air cooler be available?
One more question: is it necessary to use an evga mobo due to the cpu indent spot?

I have an ASRock z77e-iTX and it fits fine, I don't know this 100% but I'm guessing the  cpu backplate thing is so you can use coolers that need a backplate without having to actually install one. I could be wrong, but I can't figure out any other reason for this design.  My board when in like normal, but the cooler I use, a Coolermaster Hyper TX3 doesn't need a backplate. I'd assume it doesn't matter though.

Hi there, will the H100i fit inside the Hadron Hydro case? I've seen places say that it will and on here it says only single radiator closed loops. 
 
Cheers.
