well everyone's correct. you chose great choices and it looks like you know what you're doing. everyone single one of your loops has enough room for cooling a cpu, gpu, chipset and possibly a harddrive. especially since you're going to be using such a powerful pump. the BIX II is large enough , that w/ some good fans that push a lot of air, you should get getting good temps. now if you really wanted to go 2 loops. you can save money on your first one by getting a MAG pump. it's only $50 and is enough for you CPU and GPU. then when you're ready you can get another MAG and stick that for your GPU and your HD and leave the older MAG for you CPU and your chipset, that way you have 2 loops, each w/ 1 really hot heatsource. but for that you'll need 2 cores. you can go w/ 2 BIX's if you have the room. that's another thing to consider, the PA160 may not fit as well in your case as the BIX's will but if you're putting a BIXII in there, you've got the room for a PA160. it's all up to you. i would go w/ setup 2 or 1. as for a res. or a t-line. i say, if you have the space for it and have the pump power for it, go w/ a res. if not, go w/ a T-line.
