Case and motherboard for my watercooling build!

So i have decided on which case and motherboard im going to use on my future watercooling build. I actually chose to go with an mATX case and motherboard beacuse i hate carrying my miditower to lan parties, and my current case is so fucking heavy. Its like 13kg without the hardware inside...

So the case i have chosen is the Fractal Design Arc Mini, which is from the same manufacturer as my current case, the Fractal Design R3, which i am relly satisfied with, except that its a little big and its really heavy.

The Arc Mini also have really good space for a 240 radiator in top, so i think its good. Take a look:


The motherboad i have picked out is the Asus Maximus IV Gene-Z. It offers good performance, SLI/Crossfire, really good overclocking and all in a small mATX board. Perfect for my needs! It also looks super bad ass!

I might actually decide to wait and see if AMD decides to realease their new processor series, and then i expect asus to follow up with some really good AMD boards.

So what do you think about the case and motherboard?
