While I'm thinking out loud here, I should note that the whole BIP+Tornado idea isn't so great. This system's build might be an excellent candidate for flourient. Actually it's a perfect candidate. The whole system could be sumerged! I should warn you that flourient is VERY VERY expensive. You'd probably need to spend about $200 or so for a system of this size.

The upside to having a submerged system is that you don't need any custom heatsinks for RAM, PSU, MOSFETS, etc. You can use regular old heatsinks. All you would have to do is set up an adequate flow pattern to keep the hottest parts of the system cool.
