i thought about that, but I wanted it organized in my case. so I wanted the ease of mounting.

I looked at your component list, and it's nice. But, it might be worth it to go with 1/2" ID tubing. You can get a blackice with those, hose barbs from the hardware store for the pump, and you can fit the tubing over the Swiftech's connectos if you use hose clamps. You can also get the DD maze with 1/2"ers. With your pump capacity the flow rate would be higher too. Heater cores are good, and the Blackice is on par with them, but it is easier to mount inside a case.

I've got mine mounted on my back panel 120mm fan mount. Works good. Might have to work with the mounting hoels a little. I noticed they didn't line up exactly.

I'm buying a BlackIce rad too, so I was checking it's specs at hwlabs.com and noticed they've brought another rad out in the series, BlackIce Xtreme. It's the same size as the regular one, except deeper and comes with 1/2" hosebarbs as default. It's more expensive though, but it'd propably fit in your case, if you wanted better cooling for the water.

About the waterblock I dunno, but if that Maze doesn't attach to the 4 holes in the mobo, I'd go with the Swiftech, since it does.
