I don't know where to start. But here I go...

I'm gonna completely mod my computer parts.

Replace:
CPU Heatsink: Anything in particular...(was looking at Noctua DH-14)

NB and SB heatsink: Thermalright HR-05

Videocard Heatsinks: Prolimatech MK-13

Mosfet Heatsink (maybe)

Cons:
1) I have a Crossfire setup, and will the HR-05 interfere with the MK-13?
(I was thinking of getting the HR-05 SLI/IFX; where it curves) Instead of it being straight, it curves. like an "L". Like have it going towards the Sata plugs.

2) I have a pretty long sound card, it goes in the black PCI-E X, will that interfer with the NB HR-05 Heatsink?

3) I don't know which CPU cooler to get.

Here's my Mobo

Your Opinion matters!!! :) Thanks in Adv! :3
 
Well, considering that Prolimatech MK-13 looks ridiculous and will either cover your ram slots or overlap some other heatsinks on the board, wouldn't recommend that...

It's a toss up between the other two.. I would say whichever lines up the the heatsink better with the fan, since there will be about a 1/2 inch difference..
