Default How's this setup? Good or not

I ordered the Maze2/Cube System from Danger Den the other day and expect it next week sometime.

I have been trying to figure out how to set it up and came up with the following drawing. The case will remain open, so the negative airflow that it looks like is not (I think) applicable. White arrows are water flow, blue arrows are air flow.

It seriously looks really good. It is your standard, basic watercooling setup. Good luck putting it all together and post pics of it!

Well, i'm not in for spoiling your nice setup, but the 1250 and pump>rad>wb>res>pump would be alot better.. The pump does add some heat, and the cube is a serious flow kller (whats wrong with the cooler core at DD?)

Yeah.. I learned about the flow restrictions of the cube after I ordered the kit. Before I ordered it, everyone I asked said the Danger Den kit was the best one out there, so I went to their site and ordered the one for the Athlons.

I am not using peltiers, so I think even with the reduced flow, the radiator will do fine, right? I am definitely changing my flow to res>pump>radiator>block>res. I don't know what I was thinking when I drew the original plans.

I have a 1.3 GHz T-Bird and don't plan on OC'ing it too much, so will this setup that I ordered keep it cool? I would like to get under 40C at full load if possible. In the future, I plan on going with peltiers, etc.. and OC'ing, but I just wanted to get my feet wet first *pun intended*

I'm glad Dan told me about this forum.. I have learned a lot from reading already.

Rich, obviously there are always things you can do to make any setup better. Sure if you made the block out of silver, got a Black Ice II, an eheim 1250, and made it 1/2" ID it would be a bit beter, but it looks good. Especailly considering this is your first try at H2O cooling.
