SO IF I understand your drawing correctly, you will have 3 Rads on the CPU and 1 on the 3 HD's and GPU?
Personally I think you are going to alot of trouble and will get little to no benifit.
Reasons:
3 Rads on CPU, with this type of system the best you can hope for is a couple degres above ambient temp. The closer to room temp you get the less cooling ability a Air to Rad set up can pull heat from the water. ( there are posts all over this site about this topic by people that know these things and can give you the technical data to back it up)
Bix micros are restrictive, the heater core alone is more than enough to get as close to ambient as you will get ( assuming it is a good one) and gives much better flow.
I am running 2 PC's from one cooling system, (The sytem is posted) I tried combining the return water before the rads and got no differeance in temp from when I had it running with each PC using its own Rad. That to me says I am close enough to ambient that the Bix extreme's I am using cant get rid of any more heat.
Check you fan set up also, If I read it correctly you are going to end up with positive preasure in the case, you intake and exhaust fans should be matched( IE 2 80MM fans in 2 80 mm fans out)
This is what Is see. Not trying to be ugly but I think you are going through alot of trouble for little to no benifit. I could be wrong, so please feel free to correct anything I may have misinterpreted.
