Just wanted to update that I've gotten my new rig up and running. Thank you all for your recommendations and help. Much appreciated.

Will do. I have 2 more questions to check with you gurus:

1. my psu is currently mounted with the fan facing up.. According to the guy, it sucks the hot air out..instead of sucking cold and dust through. I've read that it's better to face down but then again, my PSU fan has not turn since ....apparently, I might not be drawing enough power for it to spin. So i guess, for me facing up or down makes no difference?

2. any shops selling these magnetic mounts?

Face down is the supposed way to draw exclusive cooler air into PSU. Face up disrupts the natural convectional airflow (hot air rises, cool air sinks) and creates opportunity for dust inside PSU settle over time. Bad idea.
