I really like those stackable TT cases that they sell now,.......specifically the Core X9. I would use one of them, but I already have a Corsair Air 540 on hand.

Welcome to the club!
The 295x2 has definitely taken the spot as my favorite card I've owned in a long time, regardless of manufacturer. I hope yours gives you the same satisfaction.

Is that third PCI-E slot X16 speed? (My guess is that it is)

Either way that GPU is pretty fine.

Oh yeah, that's tough stuff. One of the most common glasses you see of this type is Pyrex. It's very resistant to temperature shock and is surprisingly impact resistant.
