In the near future (hopefully) will be getting a whole new computer! YAY
well as good as that sounds, the best part is I want to try water cooling. I overclock extremely and I want this to be money well spent.
Future system specs as of now I'm looking at:
E6600
Best mobo at the time of buy
X1900xtx
I want to water cool both the video card and cpu, as I will be overclocking both. The x1900xtx is a furnace!
For the case... I was in Bigfootcomputers the other day and the LianLi cases caught my eye. I really liked one in perticular. And I think I would be able to fit the whole water cooling setup incase- which is almost a must for me, I hate looking at a mess!

Since I am very very new to watercooling, all I know is from what I read here. I need suggestions. Heres what I need and what my money woes are.
I need:
Top notch cpu cooling
Radiator to fit inside case if possible
Radiator to be 2x120mm or 3x120 (hate 80mm fans!) if possible. BIX rads?
Pump to be good performer but on the quiet side.
VGA block to be decent, doesnt have to be the best but I do want my x1900xtx to not catch fire!
Price Point - I got about 550(Canadian) to spend on water cooling stuff.
