Actually that was my plan, I even got the 45's already. But I will admit I am going to use the hack saw because I am to cheap to by the pipe cutter.
Main reason I am using pipe though is not because it is needed, but because it is cleaner looking and the way the POS ASUS board is setup it is going to need some nasty tight turns from the CPU-NB-GPU.
I actually havn't decided if the pump and rad are going to be inside the case or not yet. If not I will hard pipe everything to the back of the case and use regular hose from there. Almost rather the pump and rad be outside the case. In fact I have a couple old small AT cases that would work to house the rad and pump. Hummmmm... Well I got 4 1/2 days off this weekend so I will have time to figure it all out.
