Thanks for the input, everythings still very tentative till the design is finalised then I can start to shop around.
It'll be interesting to see how fast we can get these boards put into action.
I can't imagine the components being too much cheaper than mouser but would love if they were.
Hopefully the through hole components don't affect the overall assembly price too much.
If anybody knows any good assemblers or a place to get the heatsinks domestically I think we could all benefit.

I am going to be water cooling mine, I have not worked all the details out yet but it will be simple using off the shelf parts.
I have an avalon now and it puts out a lot of heat and noise.

Here is my initial idea. Its looking like I will need to make an adapter plate from flat bar and will mount broads both side of the tube.
