So, after a year and a half of debate (and money troubles), I've finnaly decided to bite the bullet and build my system this spring for college (origionaly going to wait for Bloomsfield to come out, but I'll wait for the kinks to get worked out of that). The hot stuff will be an Intel E6700 (will O/C) and a 8800GTX (most likely an eVGA, non Superclock/KO and I'll O/C it myself) on an eVGA 680i board (Memory is undecided at this point). I have room in my Antec Nine Hundred to mount a Dual 120mm Radiator in the front (which is what I want to do), but I have some questions about which Dual Rad to go with. I'm going to start with one 8800 and might, MIGHT, add another later on. I've been looking at the BI GTX 240 ($99) for a rad, but do I really need it? Can I settle with just a BI Stealth 240, or should I actually go with a GTX (or even a Thermochill PA120.2)? Just as a side note: I plan on using a push-pull setup b/c I already have the fans to do it (Antec 120mm Tri Cool Blue LED) and I want the fans on the inside both for the LEDs and for the airflow across the motherboard. Pump is going to be a Swiftech MCP655, tubing is going to be 7/16" Tygon, and while I'm at it: Apogee GT CPU Water Block, and I'm stumped weither I should drop $50 on a MCW60 for the 8800GTX and find some decent RAMSinks (the Swiftech ones look good, but they need different adhesive) or drop twice as much on a full card block like the Danger Den unit? Feel free to post opinions and observations.
