what frames are you getting? i don't think it's the problem you have but the only time my 580 gets too hot it's because for some reason the frame rate limiter isn't set.
the fact that you can remove the bays all together, or just one of them, or just move them around to the position you want
screwless everything, and thumb screws for the expansion slots
huge cut out in the motherboard tray
built in fan controller
built in jumper bay
easy to remove side panels
you clearly don't care about aesthetics but i do and the cable management and case design alone make it worth it, as well as the removable HDD bays. i'm also constantly doing stuff to mine so the cut out, side panels and screwless everything makes it very much worth it also.
eh, i just use trittion or turtle beach if i need something with a mic. i know the sound quality isn't great but the main reason i got them is because i can use them on pc, ps3, and xbox. using px5's right now. i'm happy with em... not sure what the corded/cheaper version is though. i got em for way cheap on a gold box deal.
it's not hard. this is my first pc build and i did it without problems.... just know what you're getting into before hand, and have the tools you need. i would definitely suggest para cord sleeving though. i think it's easier (tried a bit of the plastic type stuff and it was kind of a pain but still not that difficult) way cheaper, i think it looks way better, and you don't need to use any ugly heat shrink.
