Default new rig for a long time lurker, some ?s for the experts I see here.

Been reading here for a long time.

My latest Mod project will be in a MountainMods Clear case that has yet to be released.

It rearranges the ATX standard so the Opticals, HDD, and PSU are in the bottom, and the Mobo sits flat above it. Quite a bit smaller than their cubes, but not MiniATX or Shuttle sized. Uses full size PSU and mobo.

My questions are regarding overall perfomance/quiet with a group of blocks.

I have been talking to Rokk at DD, and he is willing to work with some of the customization stuff I will need.

Planned:
WC SLI 7800GTX-spacing dependent on the motherboard to be purchsed
WC the CPU (maybe Pentium D engineering sample-crossing fingers)
WC the NB?
new HDD WB that DD has coming
new single pass Rad that DD has coming, 2X120mm in size.
DD CSP-Mag 12V pump (is this enough oomph?)

I might only do a 8-10% OC, and quiet is important as is stability.

I know the selected blocks works out to a moderate amount of resistance in the loop.

I prefer 3/8" tubing since my space is going to be fairly tight for the rest of the Mod to work out.

I think I can complete the Mod layout such that the Dual Rad won't be using Case air, but will be "on top" in a separate 4" deck above the mobo and using direct outside air.

Thoughts? Comments? "you're an idiot"?
