Q1.
Will I need the stock cooler if I'm using the Arctic Xtreme? I won't, right?
Q2
. Any cost cutting measures? (Mainboard & Cabinet I guess?)

Thanks. All performance-transparent price reductions will be very helpful.

1. Can you give some more details of TRUE? I'm confused on that one.
2. Will the CM 690 be as silent as the NZXT Hush? The Hush has very good acoustic dampening material. Are you using CM 690?

1.The thermalright ultra 120 extreme orTRUE is the best air cooling kit in the market today..It costs 2.5k and you will also need to buy a 120mm fan for this but those are very cheap...

2.The cm690 is a proven cabby with excellent air flo...Im not sure about its noise levels though, the hush is also the same price so its your choice...

And since you seem to look for cost cutting, you can go for the MSI HD4870 512mb for only 12.5k...Later you can add another one and go crossfire.
