here's some shopping list for my personal system...
again, pls note, that i am doing this as a hobby and in such case, i have been known to and will make decision based solely on coooooooool factor...
Radiator:
HW Labs Black Ice GTX 120
vs Thermochill PA120.1
Q1) i hear many folks rate up the Thermochill but for some reason, i like the finish and look of the HW Labs Black Ice GTX120... pros and cons?
Q2) with either one of these radiators, what cfm fan should i be getting of the various 120mm fans out there?
Q3) i just replaced a noisy 120mm fan on another PC with the Noctua... http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/no12nf34cfm1.html
this is very silent... looks nice, but color is dumb as hell...anyone have any experience with this? will this have enough CFM for my system?
Tubing:

Pump:
Swiftech MCP355 w/Custom Derlin DDC Pump Top
Reservoir:
