Been putting some thought into it, looking into these parts:

 

Water block: http://www.frozencpu...0c325s839#blank

Radiator: http://www.jab-tech.....3-pr-3264.html

Pump: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16835108082

Tubing: http://www.frozencpu...l?tl=g30c99s172

Lighting: http://www.frozencpu...V.html?tl=g6c75

Reservoir: http://www.frozencpu...tl=g30c97#blank

 

Any thoughts/suggestions?

 

I'm going to pull the trigger on it when I end up selling my old computer, hopefully in the next month or so.

 

 

The block/res/pump is my setup. It performs wonderfully. You will enjoy it. IMO you will need another rad for the 2 x 480's. They pull a lot of watts to dissapate. We have been though this earlier. The 480's will pull a minimum of 300W ea.... and probably much more! and if you overclock a i7 with high voltage , you can be about 300W or more depending on overclock and voltage. the MCP655 will handle another rad.

 

 

Radiator Heat Dissipates Capacity Chart

- Single 120.1 = 150w

- Dual 120.2 = 300w

- Triple 120.3 = 450w

- Quad 120.4 = 600w

 

 

 

Here is a link that will affirm it from Danger Den..

Just doing the CPU for now, gonna figure out the GPUs later. Good to know I picked solid performers!

 

Question: Where did you mount the res?

I have a tech station so I cannot help you there. I use a Swiftech Micrors. It is small and easy to install. Yours will require more attention. I chose the microres cause it is easy to install high so the air bleeds easily especially inside a case.
