Now we need to know which PSU and cooler to purchase.

Nexus99,

I'm going with a Corsair H100 for cooling (found at newegg or whichever getting place you use). For PSU I'm using Dell Z750P units (http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Dell-PowerEdge-2950-Z750P-00-RX833-0RX833-7001072-Y000-Server-Power-Supply-/251533148025?pt=PCA_UPS&hash=item3a908b3f79) coupled with a gekkoscience Dell PSU breakout board (i.e. sidehack's breakout board http://www.gekkoscience.com/products/D750_supply_breakout_board.html). Right now I have a couple of those pulling between 920W and 950W at the wall. From that you can tell that over committing the PSU is WAY possible *without* much chance of the magic smoke coming out. On another note, does anyone know if the HashFast Minepeon image work as the miner for these boards? Hope this helps.

Go with the h100i rather than the h100 - better pump and apparently cools much better.

For thermal paste I highly recommend going with a 100% metal option, like Coollaboratories Liquid Ultra

Power supply I'd suggest 950w+
