Plumb it up in a single series loop. A BIP II would do a fine job in the cooling department, no need to get the extreme. As would a single mcp350. You will never NEED 2 pumps in a watercooling system unless you were cooling an entire array of computers with a single loop. In a small case like that, a res will only take up space. Get a T line. I do agree with the chipset block though, it would be pointless. You also do not need to watercool hard drives. I have 4 250gb sata drives stacked up in the front of my case and they do great without much airflow. Had them for a while and never had a problem from any of them.
CPU, 2 GPUs, and chipset... in one loop? with one rad? water cooling is quite capable but not that capable. that is an awful lot of blocks with high heat dumps in one loop. i set mine up in two separate loops and i've had wonderful performance. with those kind of parts i'm sure he wants all of the performance he can get. putting all of that in one loop is not going to cool enough to get decent/stable OC's.
