i'm not gonna elaborate on the NB surface.

but the other stuff u pointed out:

reason for watercooling in my case is twofold:
1) silence (most important)
2) overclocking (nice side effect)

now if u are going to mount some 0.6A drawing behemoth fan, that is going to get u near 60mm delta noise pollution.

if i were u (if u have enough room in the case)

mount an extra rad (doesn't even have to be in parallel to see some really nice temp drops) and get rid of the 90° bend. even with normal pvc tubing i can get a curve with a diameter of 10-15cm (3-5") dunno if that is sufficient, if not get some si tubing. shouldn't cost that much...
the temps u mention seem to indicate some seriously underpowered rad, BI style maybe?

g'luck on the quest for the holy temps
