So, I have decided to take the plunge and go water cooling. What I have decided to go for it maximal quiet for this system. Ill be cooling an Athlon X2 4200, Asus A8N, and BFG 7800GTX. What I am thinking of is:

Thermaltake Symphony (removing the crappy restictive water block)
Either a Swiftech Storm or MCW600X
DD Maze 4 chipset block
DD NV78 VGA block.

The issues Im concerned about is the Symphony being a low flow rate system (~24GPH) in 3/8" ID lines. Any comments or suggestions (please)?

24gph seems reallly low. with those components of your computer, i would try to stick with 1/2" tubing.
