I'm currently getting info for putting together a new computer that I'll buy later this year. The main specs are as follows:

Case -- Lian-Li PC-601

Processor -- AMD Athlon XP 3000+ (400 fsb version)

Motherboard -- Gigabyte GA-7N400PRO2

Video Card -- NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 Ultra

I want to add water cooling at least for the processor at first, with the ability to add coolers for the video card and chipset later on.

I would like to know what you guys would reccommend for the different parts for my cooling system. Like which pump, resevoir, processor block, etc to use. Also note that the MOBO doesn't have mounting brackets so I'm guessing that I'd have to go with the Dangerden AMDMaze4 processor block as it's the only brand I've seen that has the ability to install without brackets.

Thanks for any help.
