firstly whats the rig for?

If it was my rig, i'd get the cm 690 II, it offers good cable management, cooling and customisation. you can read about it here I think it will house ya components better than the t900. :)

also instead of wireless, i'd consider homeplugs, they simply send the internet through ya house wiring from ya router to ya pc, giving you a constant booming connection that will never drop out (mine never has) wireless is ok, but for a gaming desktop ya gonna want that awesome connection with no drop outs.

i'd also get a pci 3.0 mobo, this would fully support ya 680's bandwidth. and give you the option of adding another 680 in the future, but you would want an 850w psu for that.

other than that looks spot on,
