Default Ultimate Water Cooling System

Hey, i'm going over to water cooling- I'm going to build my system piece by piece- so i was wondering if you had any suggestions:
I'm planning for it to be all in my case (antec 1030b) for my athlon 1ghz.

hung up mostly on the radiator (must fit in my case somewhere.. seen no reviews for radiators)
and whether to have an inline pump or a rese-pump combo.

as far as a waterblock, looks like the dangerden maze2 unless there is something better out there. (silver blocks?)

and i haven't a clue on what a good peltier would be- as far as where to get a 'good' one (if there are differences) and what's a good wattage to deal with. (is there anyway to not have to have an extra PSU?)

though i would like suggestions on everything. thanks a lot (seen lots of watercooling posts- but no real information followed up on them)

also i'm game for cooling my videocard.

I've read all the articles I could find so far- maybe you could point me towards some good reading also

there are some coolers that fit on the top of the case.
for water blocks, the dangerden is a fine piece, i like the swiftech a lot also.
if you want just one psu go with Enermax 651 its a big 24A max on the +12v.
of coures you could put two smaller ones.
a friend of mine is watercooling his 1200 T-Bird with a 156w tec with the 651 psu alone.
you might be able to put a small tec on the vid card also.

as for radiator, black ice is getting a lot of good reviews. The dangerden cube is also a good one. I stuffed mine into 3 of the 5.25 slots with 120mm fans on front and back

The snefo might be good after you tap it for 3/8 instead of 1/4
