I generally like the stuff from dangerden and swiftech as solution providers. They both provide kits with everything in them.

For radiators, I prefer thermochill's PA series (the PA160 is a wonderful balance of performance and noise but not as extreme performance as other possibilities).

For pumps, I cannot recommend anything but Laing right now (I don't use any of the other brands because they are either noisier or much more expensive or both). The Laing DDC (MCP-350) and Laing D5 (MCP655) are great pumps.

As for the coolant, I use distilled water with 30% antifreeze straight from BiMart.
