Thanks for the input... I will check on the box when I get home and fix that. as for the glow, there aint enough!!! Thanks to ben input I now have a can of UV die spray paint *cackle* Them panaflo fans about to undergo plastic surgery. One thing I HATE though is the darned clutter. I always thought that case was huge but now Im realising it aint that big afterall. heh. Still got a long way to go before I consider it 'neat'.

I also feel that the heatercore SHOULD be plenty for this setup... Im very happy with my overclock at the moment. Since added the NB block Ive gained an additional 120 mhz (was just barely at 3060 mhz stable before) and improved case temps slightly, but at 41 degrees case temps, its warm in there... And for all I know the very high case temps could be whats causing the problem with the 48 degree idle cpu temp. (It SHOULDNT though if the fans are pulling air into the case from the outside..)

At this point Im just shooting in the dark. Im not really aware of the water temps and the flowrate in my loop. The pump should be sufficient to ensure that an acceptable flowrate is going through so Im going to focus first on getting a couple of temp sensors that I Can put in the loop and a decent lcd that can read those temps and Ill go from there...
