would this be a good set up for water cooling?
Pump: Dolphin Pond/Tank Master Series Submersible/In Line Water Pump
CPU Block: Zalman ZM-WB2 CPU Block
Heater Core: 1977 PONTIAC BONNEVILLE Heater Core
Tubing: ClearFlex 60- 1/2 inch
Thermal Paste: Radio Shack Heat Sink Compound
Clamps: White Hose Clamp- 1/2
Fans: Generic 120x120x25mm

How many clamps would I need for this? I want noise reduction, cooler cpu and i might do a little overclocking later.

Ask if you need more info.

Thank YOu.

Don't get that waterblock... A tdx or 6002 (I think that's what they are) make much better choices. Also, which pump are you getting? The linked page has a list of all their models. Oh, and spend the $3 on Ceramique or AS5 - it DOES make a difference.

The DP-385 specs look pretty good. Just get 10ft of tubing, it's quite cheap and always nice to have some extra lying around.

Dont forget to buy either a reservoir or a T-fitting (for a T-line).

Yep, thats the one.
You'll need 2 clamps for the pump, 2 for the cpu, 2 for the Heater core, 3 for the T-fitting, and probably one for the plug at the top of your t-line. So atleast 10 clamps.
