Noctua Adobe Workstation build

My old thread for help
I SOLD my 7950 during the litecoin boom and made some extra cash. I decided to make my system quieter instead of getting a better GPU. Since all AMD card prices skyrocketed I had to go for NVIDIA, I bought the quietest 760 in the market which is the MSI 760. I bought the cheapest Noctua heatsink and quietest Noctua 2x 140mm and 1x 120mm. My system is barely audible now, just a really light whisper of air getting sucked up in my case!
Here is my updated part list:
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U9B SE2 CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H87M-D3H
Memory: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB DDR3-1866
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB
Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 760 2GB
Case: Corsair 350D Case
Case Fan: Noctua NF-A14 ULN 140mm Fan
Case Fan: Noctua NF-A14 ULN 140mm Fan
Case Fan: Noctua NF-S12A ULN 120mm Fan
Power Supply: SeaSonic G 550W
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
LINK for pictures, enjoy!
