I would appreciate any advice on how to improve this coolling system that I am considering purchasing. Particularly a cpu block with 1/2 fittings(where I am able to get Swiftech UH for a reasonable price?). Would it not be really nice if sites would ALWAYS specify ID and OD?
Black Ice Extreme x2 with Sunon 120mm
Via Aqua 1300 with reservoir(from becooling)
Black Chipset Block 1/2"(from becooling)
Black Video Block(from becooling if it fits my card)
Black Edge CPU Block(would prefer the UH)

CPU Waterblock - DTek Spir@l (http://dtekcustoms.safeshopper.com/18/31.htm?660)
Heater core from an 1986 Chevrolet Chevette or 1989 Chevrolet Camaro, also sold by DTek (http://dtekcustoms.safeshopper.com/19/93.htm?660)

I would just get the regular AquaVia not the one with the res. I agree with the Spir@l and heatercore suggestions. I have spir@l right now in conjunction with a BIX and I still get 36C idle temps (only 6C above ambient)
Check this for a vidcard block:

Also I wouldnt' go chipset block. IT kills your flow and for the time being most chipsets are happy enough to be air cooled by low dba fans.

I really like that radiator and I will probably go with the spiral when it has P4 mounting. The video card block says GeForce, having an ATI I am not sure if the size is exactly the same. Also what is the ideal way to mount that video block considering that my card does not have any holes and it does not seem like there would be much room for a clamp. Just use an adhesive?
