Something you should know:
The TDX is NOT suited for TEC cooling. Notice the shape of the block. Notice the shape of the TEC. They don't match vary well. So, unless you plan on using chilled liquid, a TEC/TDX combo is out. If you want to got the TEC route in the future I would suggest a maze4. Screw fluid XP, unless you are paranoid. Water will actually give better temps, not to mention it's cheaper.
If you go with a TDX I would avoid a 1046/1048. No real issues with the D5, some just complain about noise. They are great pumps and push a lot of water. About the same as two MAGs in series (balparked). You might consider a BIP3 mounted externally with Panaflow L1s at 7v for a lower noise alternative. That is similar to the setup I have.
