<center>My First water cooled project</center>

Objective: Max cooling when playing Tribes II @ 150 fps (inside at least) w/ my hot ass AMD 1133 & Leadtek Geforce2 pro 64 ddr 5 ns. Also near whisper operation while listening to mp3's at night.

In other words i want a quiet case that can cool everything that heats up in my case, with the ability to kick in some more cooling power w/ a slight noise increase.

I do not intend to overclock. That being said any ability to overclock by implementing this system would ne appreciated.

I want my AMD to stay around room temp and I will be a Happy Camper.

Case:
In-Win Full ATX Q500 URL: www.in-win.com

Waterflow:

Res=>Radiator=>CPU=>Vid=>M/b=>Res

Radiator:
Cube Style. Either Danger Den or Aquastealth.

Exhaust Fan:
120mm Fan (Quiet as possible! Suggestions??) Will also have a rheostat or potentiometer hooked up to it.

Ducted 5" heater duct out a 90 degree turn to top of case.

Resevoir w/ submerged Xgph pump. Placed on bottom of case.X = Quiet as possible, while satisfying my cooling needs. Suggestions please!!!!!!!!

Water Blocks:

CPU: MAZE II by Danger Den.
Chipset and video: Any maze offering will do, like the one from Aquastealth.

Pease give me your thoughts and keep in mind i am entirely new at this but have experience with computers and auto mechanics.
