I need to replace 1 hose as I cut it kinda short, you can probably tell which one from the picture 
Also I just have distilled water in it, but I wanted some opinions of on this water wetter stuff? or Purple Ice. I was just gonna use some more distilled water and some anti-freeze.
But if anyone has some suggestions on decreasing my temps a little more I would appreciate it. These temps are alot better then before, I was expecting kinda lower, but then again I'm killing alotta noise in my system, so I'm sure running fans at lower rpms might have something to do with it.
I got a crystalfontz lcd module on the way, and I'm gonna write a program for it, that as temps increase fans will spin up.
Also is it possible to get a pelt that may only decrease temps by 10-12C and will plug into your powersupply? Something that I wouldn't have to worry about condensation

I would say no on the pelt, you will need a seperate power supply to run it, even a small pelt will not work with the same supply the computer is running off of.
You need to try and rig up a water temp probe. That way you can see how much warmer the water is over the air temp. That will tell you if it is the block or the RAD or neither that is the problem. Faster fans on the rad will probably help but it may add noise aswell. You can't get both so you will have to come up with an equel medium.
