You talking about 400mhz fsb? The i7 don't use fsb, its now bclk (aka cpu frequency) with a higher cpu multiplier. The 920 has like 14x - 20x multiplier depending on the motherboard.

The extra 400mhz went not give too much because the i7 can handle anything you throw at it.
You do it because you can and want to see a quicker superpi run.
Alright that's a nice looking build now
Aspire.comptech will give you the lown down on the H20 but at a 3.6 Ghz overclock the SN9700 with an i7 adapter bracket would work nicely, or any of the better rated i7 coolers
and if your going for a new PSU i'd stick with the Corsair 80 Plus stuff
if you buying the Asus Rampage Extreme II then you don't have to worry about he sound card,
Asus has already thought well on placement and if you'll notice the black PCI 1.1 interface at the very top of all the PCi connectors that's where the packaged sound card belongs
But you also have to deal with Asus customer service if the board dies ><
