The cooling on the component does not really change the lifespan a significant amount.

I know im going to use my 2600k for at least 5 years. So I just stayed at 4.5ghz even though as my sig suggests I got it to 4.7 stable and could go higher with better cooling, and since I wanted it to last I did not want to go over 1.4v.
Most boards do auto set 1333mhz, but thats what XMP is for.

you might need to do a bit of minor modding to get the h220 to work in that case but it doesnt look hard.
overkill with that PSU much? They lose there efficiency under 20% the 750W would have worked with the current build (though probably not SLI 680s with OC if thats what you were thinking) Keep in mind @ 1200W you need to plug into a 20 amp socket. 1kw PSU should be fine with a 15 amp.
Edit: whoops it isnt in my sig here....
