I have scrapped all my previous plans for watercoolimng and have decided to start over. all i have now is a swiftech storm and my case. the infamous lianli pc-60. from what i have figured i have two options for radiators; a pa 160 would go nicely in the front bottom of the case but it costs almost 100 dollars. a black ice pro 2 would fit in the top if i sacrificed 2x5 /1/4" bays . i have 300 dollars to spend on the entire system minus the storm. cooling my gpu would be nice aswell but i want good temperatures

You can get a 1x120mm heatercore to go in the lower front of your case for $25. Performance would be quite acceptable I'd think.

the pa160 may not fit in the front . i mount JR120s in the front and they fit perfectly in the lianli pc62usb case ( an elongated version of the pc60)

ahh you want to remove the 3.5 bays also?

you can fit a jr120 in there without removing it

I want to build it with the ability to cool cpu + gpu ( maybe sli in the future) with very good temps. I happen to already have a bip2. I was debating using it or not since noise is a big concern for me maybe i could use it in addition to the pa160 for more surface area and less noise. Is that a good idea?
