The pc-v1000 is great for water cooling from what alot of people say, but only if u have a small pump such as the mcp650 or the dange den d4 (same thing). As well u need to have a small rad. A single 120mm rad would the optimal for that case as it can either be attached where the hd rack is (have to remove one rack) or off the back of the case where there is that 120mm fan.
but for large pumps such as the iwakis or the larger eheims, along with a dual heatercore the case is limiting without some serious modification. I tried to think of a way to setup my current water cooling setup in the pcv100 and even the 2000 and i couldnt get it to work. The way it is setup is just not friendly to the larger water cooling gear imo.
Now actually reading your post, and seeing ur setup, I suppose it will work, but you dont need to put the pump down there. u can sit it next to the mobo. right to the left of it. it will shorten up your tubing alot. As far as the rad placement, im not fond of the way u plan to d it becaues u will be fuxxored if u want ot add any cd rom drives or if u need to use a floppy. and there will be a day when u need to.
