Ok so after some chats and trolling the net i've came up with this

ThermoChill PA120.3 - 360 Radiator (15mm)
XSPC Bay Reservoir - Clear Acrylic
12V Laing D5 Vario Pump (MCP655)
HEATKILLER® CPU Rev3.0 1366 Copper Top Water Block (there this or LT or LC)
Arctic Cooling MX-3 Thermal Compound
5 Meters of 1/2" ID - 3/4" OD Clear Hose (XSPC)
PrimoChill White PVC Hose Clip 1/2" OD (10 Pack)
Thermochill EC6 Non Conductive Coolant - UV Blue

Ok

2 for the block, 2 for the res, and 2 for the rad.

Don't forget the Thermochill rads use G3/8" thread instead of the usual G1/4", so either get some G3/8" barbs for the rad or get a couple of these G3/8" to G1/4" bushes: http://www.watercoolinguk.co.uk/cata...oducts_id=1096

btw. I hate those plastic hose clips, they are impossible to remove once you've fitted them, and they don't always go on properly. I prefer cable ties or metal jubilee clips, they are much easier to work with.

Nice to see you're going for a Heatkiller

Any good res you could recommend or does it not matter?

You get fittings with everything on that site coz I got my watercooling from there too. When you click on the radiator for example, it should say choose fitting.

Not sure how well cable ties will work with thick walled tubing, it might be an idea to use a couple on each connection, just to be safe. I have a kind of copper fetish so I would choose the block with the copper top, because it is pure pr0n!

I suppose a bay mounted reservoir is the easiest to fit, though I like just using a fillport and having no res at all.

[EDIT] oh yeah, fans, don't forget fans!

The Copper Top and the LT are the same block, just with different tops. The LT is Acetal i believe. The LC isnt quite as good - the internals I slightly different.

Ahh i see well i bought more expensive copper one =D

hope that does the job

though i feel this overkill for just a cpu i'll probs add gpu and nb later on.

I always thought your CPU was watercooled when I met you coz of the high overclock
