They can go in parallel anywhere in the system and their heat is not concentrated in one area. AND 2 VIA 1300 are NOT bigger than one Danner Mag 5 or 7. Also 1 VIA 2600 is smaller than one Danner and half the price.

Yup.

Noise isn't an issue. The case is made of 5/8" particle board and not in an area where it will matter anyway.

Whats more reliable? 1 danner or 2 vias?(you get what you pay for)

You have nothing to back this up with. I see plenty of people running VIA's 24/7 for years in ponds and aquariums (that is what they are made for!) and even PC's. Reliability is in the hands of the installer. Most problems I see are user caused.

Also I might go with the Swiftech MCP600 (I like the 12V), Little Giant 2-MDQX-SC, or just use my HydroThruster 500.
In any case is will be a cold day in hell when I consider buying a Danner. Not worth what you get IMO. Would rather spend $20 more for a much better pump or $20 less for just a good of a pump.
Also note this system will require at least 2 pumps. One for the CPU blocks and one for the 3 NB and 1 GPU block.
